JBOF Storage

Our Direct Attached JBOF Storage appliances allow you to expand your current storage pool with enterprise-grade flash storage via NVMe Over Fabrics.

Connecting storage nodes over a fabric allows multiple paths to the JBOF applaiances storage resource. It also enables concurrent operations to distributed storage, and a means to manage potential congestion. Further, it allows thousands of drives to be connected in a single pool of storage, since it is no longer limited by the reach of PCIe, but can also take advantage of a fabric technology like RoCE or Fibre Channel.

There are a multitude of enterprise-grade features that make Broadberry CyberStore JBOF storage appliances the ideal choice for expanding your storage

The NVMe storage enclosure is high density and high capacity. The appliance supports up to 32 NVMe hot-swappable SSDs, features tool-less modular design and individual SSD power cycling.

JBOF has the capacity of up to 1PB of storage per 1U of rack space. The storage appliance is capable of up to 52 GB/s data transfer rate and has the flexibility to configure up to 12 hosts or with NVMe oF AOC.

Broadberry JBOF Appliance are Ideal for these Applications

Configured with the Mellanox BlueField™ SmartNIC network adapter the CyberStore JBOF appliance combines processing power with advanced network offloads to speed up a number of security, storage and networking applications. Delivering world-class efficiency, flexibility and performance.

A smart and programmable network adapter, it features dedicated hardware offload for NVME over Fabrics. BlueField™ SmartNIC adapters accelerate a wide variety of applications via flexible data and control plane offloading. Allowing for more efficient use of compute resources, BlueField™ SmartNIC adapters permit the CPU to give its full focus on running applications rather than on networking processing.  

In addition, as BlueField™ SmartNICs are software-defined adapters, they ensure the utmost flexibility through adapting to future features and protocols through a quick and simple update.

NVM Express over Fabrics defines a common architecture that supports a multitude of storage networking fabrics for NVMe block storage protocol over a storage networking fabric. Including the enabling of a front-side interface into storage systems, scaling out to large amounts of NVMe devices and increasing the distance within a datacentre over which these devices and subsystems can be accessed.

The NVMe over Fabrics specification is a recently advancement, with work on the specification beginning in 2014 with the aim of extending NVMe onto fabrics like Ethernet, InfiniBand and Fibre Channel. NVMe over Fabrics has been designed and built to work with any suitable storage fabric technology.
The main aim of NVMe over Fabrics is to deliver distance connectivity to NVMe devices with no more than 10 microseconds of additional latency over a native device in a server.

CyberStore JBOF Network Compatibility

Up to 90% of the NVMe over Fabrics protocol is the same as the local NVMe protocol. This includes the namespaces, registers and properties, asynchronous events, I/O and administrative commands, power states, reservations and others.

The main difference between local NVMe and NVMe over Fabrics is that the latter unlocks the full advantages offered by NVMe-enabled storage arrays. It offers the separation of control traffic and data traffic, which significantly simplifies traffic management. Overall data performance is improved and latency is reduced through NVMe oF taking advantage of the internal parallelism of storage devices and lowering I/O overhead.

NVMe oF delivers a big boost in performance to enterprises that deploy applications that require real-time access to stored data, without any distance dependencies. This includes machine learning applications, Internet of Things analytics and big data.
