The modularization of Service Function Chains (SFCs) in Network Function Virtualization (NFV) could introduce significant performance overhead and resource efficiency degradation due to introducing frequent packet transfer and consuming…

To improve customer experience, datacenter operators offer support for simplifying application and resource management. For example, running workloads of workflows on behalf of customers is desirable, but requires increasingly more…

In this work, we propose a novel coding scheme which based on the characteristics of NAND flash cells, generates codewords that reduce the energy consumption and improve the reliability of solid-state drives. This novel coding scheme,…

Solid-state storage architectures based on NAND or emerging memory devices (SSD), are fundamentally architected and optimized for both reliability and performance. Achieving these simultaneous goals requires co-design of memory components…

Emerging storage systems with new flash exhibit ultra-low latency (ULL) that can address performance disparities between DRAM and conventional solid state drives (SSDs) in the memory hierarchy. Considering the advanced low-latency…

Achieving high performance in virtualized data centers requires both deploying high throughput storage clusters, i.e. based on Solid State Disks (SSDs), as well as optimally consolidating the workloads across storage nodes. Nowadays, the…

Data center operators face a bewildering set of choices when considering how to provision resources on machines with complex I/O subsystems. Modern I/O subsystems often have a rich mix of fast, high performing, but expensive SSDs sitting…

SoCs are now designed with their own AI accelerator segment to accommodate the ever-increasing demand of Deep Learning (DL) applications. With powerful MAC engines for matrix multiplications, these accelerators show high computing…

Considering the current price gap between disk and flash memory drives, for applications dealing with large scale data, it will be economically more sensible to use flash memory drives to supplement disk drives rather than to replace them.…

As its price per bit drops, SSD is increasingly becoming the default storage medium for cloud application databases. However, it has not become the preferred storage medium for key-value caches, even though SSD offers more than 10x lower…

Disaggregated storage systems improve resource utilization and enable independent scaling of storage and compute resources by separating storage resources from computing resources in data centers. NVMe over fabrics (NVMeoF) is a key…

Log-Structured Merge (LSM) tree-based Key-Value Stores (KVSs) are widely adopted for their high performance in write-intensive environments, but they often face performance degradation due to write stalls during compaction. Prior solutions,…

Data center providers seek to minimize their total cost of ownership (TCO), while power consumption has become a social concern. We present formulations to minimize server energy consumption and server cost under three different data center…

Storage systems account for a major portion of the total cost of ownership (TCO) of warehouse-scale computers, and thus have a major impact on the overall system's efficiency. Machine learning (ML)-based methods for solving key problems in…

Although NAND flash memory has achieved continuous capacity improvements via advanced 3D stacking and multi-level cell technologies, these innovations introduce new reliability challenges, particularly lateral charge spreading (LCS), absent…

For modern flash-based SSDs, the performance overhead of internal data migrations is dominated by the data transfer time, not by the flash program time as in old SSDs. In order to mitigate the performance impact of data migrations, we…

Task-based programming models are excellent tools to parallelize and seamlessly load balance an application workload. However, the integration of I/O intensive applications and task-based programming models is lacking. Typically, I/O…

GPU-initiated I/O has emerged as a key mechanism for achieving high-throughput storage access by leveraging massive GPU thread-level parallelism, while recent industry trends point toward SSDs optimized for ultra-high random-read IOPS.…

The current flash memory technology focuses on the cost minimization of its static storage capacity. However, the resulting approach supports a relatively small number of program-erase cycles. This technology is effective for consumer…

The rapid adoption of large language models (LLMs) is pushing AI accelerators toward increasingly powerful and specialized designs. Instead of further complicating software development with deeply hierarchical scratchpad memories (SPMs) and…
