sambaXP 2020: SMB3 Protocol Update
Tom Talpey gives the already traditional annual "SMB3 Protocol Update" at sambaXP 2020.
The SMB3 protocol has updated in the past year, with compression in 2019 and further updates in the Windows "20H1" Spring release. We'll review and recap the protocol since the last SambaXP, and also provide a look forward, including an update on recent developments in RDMA to enable "Push Mode" for ultra-low-latency remote access to persistent Storage Class Memory via SMB3 and SMB Direct.
