Today, energy and performance efficiency have become a crucial factor in modern computing environments, such as high-end mobile devices, desktops, and enterprise servers, because data volumes in cloud datacenters increase exponentially. Unfortunately...
Zoned Namespace (ZNS) SSDs address the disadvantages that come from supporting the block interface within conventional SSDs, granting more control over data management to host systems, while also relieving heavy duties from device firmware. However,...
Most SSDs (solid-state drives) use an internal DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) to improve the I/O performance and extend SSD lifespan by absorbing write requests. However, this volatile memory does not guarantee the persistence of buffered data i...
