Abstract

A host system may include a computational processing unit implemented using hardware and a hardware virtualizing and remote sharing (HVRS) server that virtualizes and shares the computational processing unit with other host systems, where the host system is directly connected to an internal fabric of a storage system. A storage system interface (SSI) of the host system may be directly connected to the internal fabric of the storage system and also directly connected to a same peripheral device interconnect as the CPU, the computational processing unit and/or other hardware resources of the host system. The SSI may communicate with storage resources of the storage system using remote direct memory access (RDMA) and zero-copy technologies. Such a host system may provide the storage capacity and data protection services of a storage system at relatively fast speeds e.g., comparable to non-volatile RAM on a host system configured for use as persistent memory.
