Abstract
A method for offloading a lookup operation to a NAND offload apparatus, including receiving, by the NAND offload apparatus, a NAND read command from a key-value solid-state drive (KV SSD) NAND interface, wherein the NAND offload apparatus is connected between the KV SSD NAND interface and a NAND device using a NAND bus; determining whether the NAND read command includes an information element indicating an indirect read operation; based on the NAND read command including the information element, performing the indirect read operation by the NAND offload apparatus; and based on the NAND read command not including the information element: passing, by the NAND offload apparatus, the NAND read command to the NAND device through the NAND bus, and configuring, by the NAND offload apparatus, a switch an output gate to pass a response message from the NAND device to the KV SSD NAND interface.
