Abstract
Example multi-device storage systems, storage devices, and methods provide hosted services on peer storage devices. Storage devices include local memory resources, such as operating memory, remotely addressable memory, or logical mapping memory, and compute resources, such as a processor or coding engine. Each storage device is configured to communicate with a plurality of peer storage devices over an interconnect fabric. The storage devices identify requested hosted services from service host requests received through the interconnect fabric. The storage devices store a plurality of hosted services are to enable access to local memory resources and local compute resources for data management operations for the plurality of peer storage devices.
