Data Fabric Support for NVIDIA GDS

Describes HPE Ezmeral Data Fabric support for the NVIDIA GPU Direct Storage (GDS) bypass protocol.

Data Fabric NFS with Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) in release 7.2.0 supports NVIDIA GPU Direct Storage (GDS). See the NVIDIA storage support matrix.

GDS uses RDMA to bypass system CPU and memory when transferring data from a storage system to GPU memory. Because NVIDIA has enabled GDS for standard Linux NFS clients using RDMA, you can use the Data Fabric NFS client with RDMA to send and receive data between the Data Fabric and GPU without involving the host processor.
