Discussions have begun on enabling RBD volumes to be accessed as NVMe devices from hosts via a SmartNIC and NVMe over Fabrics (or just NVMe-oF from hosts without SmartNICs). This will accommodate a variety of NVMe-oF gateway deployment scenarios, optionally including ADNN (an NVMe-oF extension for distributed storage targets). See the October 2010 CDM (https://youtu.be/2NFqigol6Ss?t=5473, at 1:31:00) for an overview of ADNN. There is a weekly meeting (Tuesdays, 9:00 AM Pacific) on this topic open to all Ceph developers.
