2024年12月5日 · Learn about the specifications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) EJ1X and EJ1Y adapters. The PCIe4 4-port NVMe JBOF adapter is a PCI Express (PCIe) generation 4 (Gen4) x16, short form-factor adapter. The FC EJ1X is a short, low-profile adapter. The FC EJ1Y is a short, full height adapter.

2016年3月9日 · Lightning is our first version of a NVMe JBOF (just a bunch of flash). It is designed to provide a PCIe gen 3 connection from end to end (CPU to SSD). Additionally, we leveraged the existing Open Vault (Knox) SAS JBOD infrastructure to provide a faster time to market, maintain a common look and feel, enable modularity in PCIe switch solutions ...

超微长期以来提供了许多JBOF（Just a Bunch of Flash，闪存阵列）解决方案，部署为直接连接存储或联网的文件或对象存储。 现在，他们正在推出一款由NVIDIA BlueField数据处理单元（DPU）驱动的新型JBOF。

JBOF是Just a Bunch of Flash的缩写，使用PCIe交换机fan out（可理解为扇出、或连接）到SSD，而EBOF使用以太网交换机fan out到SSD。 JBOF和EBOF通过NVMe-oF连接到主机服务器。

Flash (JBOF) systems, All-Flash-Array and storage appliances for NVMe over Fabrics. With an integrated NVMe-oF offload accelerator, the BlueField DPU gives the BF1600 Controller Card a superior performance advantage over existing JBOF systems, significantly reducing storage transaction latency, while increasing IOPs (I/O operations per second).

BroadcomStingray 板卡的主控芯片BCM58800也是一颗ARM SoC，它在拓扑图中的位置有点类似于前面的WD RapidFlex，但既然敢称为闪存阵列（Flash Array）而不只是E-JBOF自然有所不同。

Add-on Card: Supermicro JBOF Gen-3 external NVMe Host Bus Adapter The AOC-SLG3-4X4P is a low-profile, PCI-E x16 buffer expansion card that features an external NVMe connector for high-performance storage connectivity. This HBA card is built around a PCI-E switch IC which is proven NVMe technology with optimum performance for increased bandwidth.

2024年10月15日 · Instead of using a traditional storage server design with separate CPU, memory, and networking cards, the new JBOF uses the DPU to run the software, connect to the network, support remote management, and accelerate critical networking, storage, and security functions in customized silicon.

2025年1月10日 · BlueField-2 integrates all the discrete components of a storage system appliance into a single chip, including Arm core CPUs, PCIe switch and a network controller, making it the premier solution for building Just-a-Bunch-Of-Flash (JBOF) systems, All-Flash-Array and storage appliances for NVMe over Fabrics.

Implement All-Flash scale-out or scale-up storage for AI and CSP workloads using Supermicro’s Petascale JBOF, featuring NVIDIA’s BlueField-3 DPU for enhanced performance. This architecture has higher performance and lower power consumption than traditional storage servers and supports 24 U.2 or 36 E3.S SSDs .
