The Future of Cloud Storage? NVMe Over Fabrics

NVMe over Fabrics is a new method for linking together servers that could speed up everything from online gaming to your social media timelines - but how does it work?





Intro Theme: Showdown by F.O.O.L from Monstercat - Best of 2016

IBM sponsoring Techquikie. That's a step up

[Crazy]

A sponsor from IBM??!!?! Wow that's big Linus! Great job!!

[torchatlas]

Since clouds are water vapour, aren't the oceans mass cloud storage facilities?

[torchatlas]

Maybe the intro should be updated, since TechQuickie has way more than 1.5M subs now.

3:38 FPS Doug and Pure Pwnage was the best thing on the internet back in 2007. BOOM HEADSHOT.

I see why skyscrapers were built. They can access the cloud faster.

[Ghan]

We just recently purchased an all-NVMe flash storage array at my company. We're not doing NVMe-oF, but the usage in the industry is growing. The storage market is getting very interesting as costs continue to come down on flash.

This channel is perfect. Interesting, up to date, Fast, usefull, simple yet well explained and detailed, great edition, and the right amount of stupid jokes.

Never change the formula

Did I just watch a 6 min ad for NVMe IBM servers?

[CaveyMoth]

"Would you even use Facebook if you waited like 5 or 10 seconds, each time you clicked on something, to wait for it to respond?" Well, that's Google+ right now, and it's my social media app of choice.

[Powelek]

Lol. The "I'm not sysadmin" part is actually accurate in my example. Nice.

[benitollan]

Make a video talking about InfiniBand & RDMA.

[czardomn]

Future of cloud storage is going to be self hosting using FOSS software such as Nextcloud or FreedomBox. Hard drives are getting cheaper by the year for more storage, would make sense to have an easy setup in-house cloud storage that you control directly.

[sebastiane]

I wonder if there actually is a significant number of viewers who are in the target group of this sponsorship.

[OldMajor]

*I just wait for the NSA to supply my Data!*

[unspeci]

Wow, I was downloading a game from Steam and it started eating my cpu right at 0:56 so the video started stuttering right when Linus was talking about the demand for faster backend storage.

I thought it was intentional, but I went back in the video and that part played smoothly after the download.

[abcmole]

IBM should sponsor you and help build an offsite server for your video storage with this technology.

[Andreas_F]

Love that IBM is getting some buzz here. I believe that they are underrated

[Nozomu]

3:46 Yes, of course, saving those precious milliseconds before the patient can get treatment.

[Djuntas]

IBM sponsoring youtube videos now....Damn son. New world. New media <3
