The SNIA has a new standard that enables SSDs to have an Ethernet interface, The Native NVMe-oF Drive specification defines pin outs for common SSD connectors. This enables these drives to plug into common platforms such as eBOFs (Ethernet Bunches of Flash). This talk will also discuss the latest Management standards for NVMe-oF drives. Developers will learn about how to program and use these new types of drives.

Learning Objectives: The developer will understand how Ethernet drives are enabled; The developer will understand how to manage Ethernet drives; Then developer will understand the future of these drives.
