Abstract

In an embodiment, a storage device may include device processing logic. The device processing logic may acquire a command associated with a key-value pair (KVP). The command may be, for example, a get, set, or delete command. The KVP may include a hash value and an item. The hash value may be a key in the KVP and the item may be a value in the KVP. The device processing logic may translate the acquired command into one or more block-oriented commands which may be executed by the device processing logic to perform various operations on the storage device.
