INTRODUCTION
Non-Volatile Memory Express ® (NVMe ® ) is a new software interface optimized for PCIe ® Solid State Drives (SSD). It significantly improves both random and sequential performance by reducing latency, enabling high levels of parallelism, and streamlining the command set while providing support for security, end-to-end data protection, and other client and enterprise features. NVMe provides a standards-based approach, enabling broad ecosystem adoption and PCIe SSD interoperability.
This article provides an overview of the NVMe specification and examines some of its key features. We will discuss its pros and cons, compare it to conventional technologies, and point out key areas to focus on during its verification. In particular,
