Personnel: Francis Matus

Francis Matus, VP Engineering, Pensando Systems discusses the technologies behind the Distributed Services Platform. The Pensando platform included in the NetApp AFF A400 is built around a custom, programmable P4 processor called Capri. Capri is optimized to execute a software stack delivering cloud, compute, network, storage, and security services at cloud scale with minimal latency, jitter and very low power requirements (~30W@100G). This makes it an ideal acceleration engine for a broad range of distributed services and protocols, capable of eliminating an assortment of discrete appliances throughout the data center and simplifying IT operations. In this session Francis will provide an overview of the design principles, capabilities and future direction of the Pensando platform.
