Juniper Networks is putting more Marvis in everything. In a major announcement this week they released several new products. One of those was expanding the Mist AI platform into Juniper Apstra to create more integration between the two acquisitions. WIth Apstra you get intent-based networking and with Mist you get access to a virtual network assistant that can answer questions about issues or provide help with configuration. This and more on this week's Gestalt IT Rundown. Thanks to Max Mortillaro for sitting in.

NVMe SSDs: Everything you need to know about this insanely fast storage NVM Express (NVMe) or Non-Volatile Memory Host Controller Interface Specification (NVMHCIS) is an open, logical-device interface specification for accessing a computer's non-volatile storage media usually attached via PCI Express (PCIe) bus. The acronym NVM stands for non-volatile memory, which is often NAND flash memory that comes in several physical form factors, including solid-state drives (SSDs), PCI Express (PCIe) add-in cards, and M.2 cards, the successor to mSATA cards. NVM Express, as a logical-device interface, has been designed to capitalize on the low latency and internal parallelism of solid-state storage devices https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NVM_Express

If you're listening to this podcast you've probably heard it said that Nonvolatile memory express (NVMe) is the future of storage. The goal is to give flash drives in a storage network the same I/O speed as one connected directly to a computer via PCIe. This week John and I bring on Flash expert Dave Edwards to walk us down the stack a bit and talk NVMe vs. SCSI, Flash endurance, Latency consistency, power loss protection, and all kinds of nerdy flash stuff (3D Crosspoint and persistent DIMMs). Dave Edwards is a Systems Software Engineer with extensive expertise in product development including both software and hardware engineering. His professional goal is to enjoy creating new technology and perfecting his skills across all aspects of product engineering and leadership. Follow Dave on twitter @dedwards_tech.

Veda Shankar, Director of Emerging Technologies for Quanta Cloud Technologies (QCT), joins us to discuss QCT's work to solve storage bottlenecks endemic to cloud service providers. Many providers are turning to scale-out storage architectures, such as Ceph, to scale efficiently. However, QCT and others have found that separating storage and compute over Ethernet causes IO bottlenecks, especially for demanding workloads like Hadoop and machine learning. QCT is addressing these bottlenecks using Intel NVM Express* storage, a solution exhibited at IDF 2016 and hosted in QCT's state of the art data center lab in San Jose. Shankar additionally described how QCT's QxStack infrastructure appliance enables customers to launch an OpenStack cloud on the first day of deployment using QCT's thoroughly optimized and validated architecture.

A big portion of the incredible storage performance that we enjoy today and that necessitates projects like Intel's SPDK is NVMe. Being that we've lived in a SCSI world for such a long time, it's hard for many people to grasp exactly what NVMe is and begin thinking about storage access this way. To help us understand it better, I'm excited to bring to the show J Metz (@drjmetz) who is possibly the most well-dress storage guy you will ever meet. He's also an academic, researcher, and general force of nature in the office of the CTO at Cisco; his focus is on storage and storage networking. He's currently serving a term on the board of directors (called Promoters) for NVM Express, Inc, which is the organization driving development and awareness of NVMe. I would be hard pressed to find someone more appropriate to discuss NVMe with than J, so this is a very exciting episode, and I'm kicking myself for creating a show where we only got to spend 10 minutes with J. This could easily have been a 60 minute show that I think most listeners would have appreciated! J also writes on his blog (www.jmetz.com) and shared two very important posts with me to pass along. If you find that you need to learn more about NVMe after listening to this show, J has curated (and written personally) a substantial amount of information on NVMe. If you're looking to get up to speed and have a strong grasp of NVMe in general, use this "program of study": https://jmetz.com/2016/08/learning-nvme-a-program-of-study/ If you've got a decent grasp of NVMe but need to delve into a certain area of focus, reference this extensive bibliography: https://jmetz.com/2016/08/a-nvme-bibliography/

In this episode Amber Huffman, Intel Fellow and Director of Storage Interfaces in the Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group at Intel joins us again to discuss hardware infrastructure innovations being driven at Intel. Amber chats about NVM Express* PCI Express® SSDs – highlighting features that deliver improved efficiency and scalability, lower latency, and optimized storage. She shares the evolution to NVMe* over Fabrics – enabling low latency use of NVMe SSDs across fabrics like Ethernet and OmniPath Architecture. Amber discusses how changes in the cloud are being motivated by a virtuous cycle of storage and networking and explains that the faster we can allow the cloud to take advantage of NVMe* the more we can do with it.

Lynn Comp (@comp_lynn), the Director of Datacenter Solutions and Technologies Initiatives at Intel, is back on Chip Chat to give a software defined infrastructure recap and then talk about datacenter storage and balancing the placement of data with how often it needs to be accessed. Intel® Solid State Drives offer better performance than traditional hard drives, and when coupled with NVM Express can dramatically reduce latency for certain workloads.

From September 2012: Amber Huffman from Intel, Sumit Puri from LSI, and Steve Sardella from EMC visit Chip Chat for an in-depth discussion of NVM Express. NVMe is a flexible, scalable host controller that builds on PCI Express* (PCIe) Technology to deliver high performance for solid state drives. On the client side PCIe/NVMe SSDs will eventually replace SATA drives and on the enterprise side will be a complementary technology for SAS. Listeners also get a preview of NVMe demonstrations and classes at the upcoming Intel Developer Forum. For more information visit the NVM Express workgroup at: www.nvmexpress.org.
