Course Name
PCIe Storage Technology Training
Course Overview
This course PCIe Storage Technology Training guides you through the maze of information surrounding PCIe-based storage and the current state of SCSIe, SATAe, and NVMe. It takes a direct path through the PCIe architecture, its connectivity and configurations, the register interfaces and how it applies to SSDs. This course also covers the basics of each attachment method, protocol, and operational characteristics of current/future PCIe-based storage devices.
Target Audience
- Management, Pre/Post-support engineers, call center or typical L2 support personnel. Course also provides the major building blocks to assist anyone in designing, architecting, developing, testing, and implementing high performance low latency applications
- Developers, Testers/QA and Verification Engineers who are working on or keen to know PCIe Storage Technology
