HIGH PERFORMANCE STORAGE TECHNOLOGY WITH OFF THE SHELF STORAGE COMPONENTS

摘要

Using integrated circuits, such as field programmable gate arrays, it is possible to transfer data to common off the shelf storage devices at high speeds which would normally be associated with special purpose hardware created for a particular application. Such high speed storage can include prefetching data to be stored from a memory element into a cache, and translating the commands which will be used in accomplishing the transfer into a standard format, such as peripheral component interconnect express.
