Abstract
A storage cloud enabled platform includes storage nodes and application nodes which are the part of the same operating environment. The storage nodes and computation nodes are interconnected inside platform via an interface to provide improved response time and high bandwidth paths for storage applications. The computation nodes may include virtual or non-virtual machines. The interface may support various protocols depending on desired ease of use and response time. For example, a standardized protocol such as SCSI could be used for ease of use and data safety, or a direct data placement protocol could be used to help maximize response rate.
