    Abstract: An embodiment of an electronic apparatus may include one or more substrates, and logic coupled to the one or more substrates, the logic to maintain a respective lookup table for each of two or more persistent storage devices in a persistent memory outside of the two or more persistent storage devices with a first indirection granularity that is smaller than a second indirection granularity of each of the two or more persistent storage devices, buffer write requests to the two or more persistent storage devices in the persistent memory in accordance with the respective lookup tables, and perform a sequential write from the persistent memory to a particular device of the two or more persistent storage devices when a portion of the buffer that corresponds to the particular device has an amount of data to write that corresponds to the second indirection granularity. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

    Abstract: Examples may include a sled for a rack of a data center including physical storage resources. The sled comprises mounting flanges to enable robotic insertion and removal from a rack and storage device mounting slots to enable robotic insertion and removal of storage devices into the sled. The storage devices are coupled to an optical fabric through storage resource controllers and a dual-mode optical network interface.

    Abstract: Techniques enable offloading operations to be performed closer to where the data is stored in systems with sharded and erasure-coded data, such as in data centers. In one example, a system includes a compute sled or compute node, which includes one or more processors. The system also includes a storage sled or storage node. The storage node includes one or more storage devices. The storage node stores at least one portion of data that is sharded and erasure-coded. Other portions of the data are stored on other storage nodes. The compute node sends a request to offload an operation to the storage node to access the sharded and erasure-coded data. The storage node then sends a request to offload the operation to one or more other storage nodes determined to store one or more codes of the data. The storage nodes perform the operation on the portions of locally stored data and provide the results to the next-level up node.

    Abstract: Examples may include a sled for a rack of a data center including physical storage resources. The sled comprises an array of storage devices and an array of memory. The storage devices and memory are directly coupled to storage resource processing circuits which are themselves, directly coupled to dual-mode optical network interface circuitry. The dual-mode optical network interface circuitry can have a bandwidth equal to or greater than the storage devices.
