Abstract
Systems and methods for managing power to Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) devices. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a Central Processing Unit (CPU); a Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) device operably coupled to the CPU; a service processor operably coupled to the CPU and to the NVMe; and a memory operably coupled to the service processor, the memory including program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the service processor, cause the service processor to: receive performance data from the CPU, receive metrics data from a source other than the CPU, and control an amount of power provided to the NVMe device based, at least in part, upon the performance data and the metrics data.
