Abstract
A method for writing data to a persistent storage module (“PSM”) in a communication fabric is discussed. A write request is received from a processor at a PSM. The processor identifies a write location and transmits it to the client. The client writes the data to the PSM via an IO tier switch, and receives a write complete indication from the processor through the same IO tier switch.
