That technology is Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), and specifically NFS over RDMA. ![]() So, let’s look at a new PowerScale OneFS 9.2 feature that can improve storage and workstation performance simultaneously. These bottlenecks can be particularly painful for “hero” seats that are tasked with working in real time with uncompressed media. During post, storage and workstation performance can be huge bottlenecks.
