 Abstract Sample for Reference Only

 ----------------------------------

 

 (IMPORTANT: Please use "proposed content for tracks L1 - L10" 

 mentioned above to develop your abstract")

 

 iSER is a new IETF extension to iSCSI allowing it to run over native 

 RDMA transport replacing the slow TCP transport. The session will 

 describe the new iSCSI Datamover layer, the iSER transport module and 

 its relations with iSCSI and InfiniBand, the standard mapping from 

 iSCSI/iSER to FC and to iSCSI/TCP. The session will also review plans 

 for upcoming releases of iSER, and discussions on progresses made in 

 the areas of incorporating iSER into the iSCSI-Linux project, the 

 latest iSER RFC work in the IETF and iSER integration with upcoming kernels
and OS distributions.
