MULTI-LEVEL SCALABLE SWITCH ARCHITECTURE FOR STORAGE APPLIANCE |
摘要 |
A storage appliance device includes an interconnect plane, one or more processor bays, with each processor bay including one or more processor nodes and a front-end switch. The storage appliance device further includes one or more storage bays, with each storage bay including one or more storage cards and one or more back-end switches, the interconnect plane causes communication between the one or more processor bays and the one or more storage bays. The front-end switches and back-end switches cause coupling between the processor bay and the storage cards with interfaces that avoid violation of the requirements of a high-speed transceiver being in communication with the storage appliance device. |
