We try to answer the question, “What is the best hardware architecture for a DSN?” reminding ourselves that the ideal DSN is a fully contained unit, with zero footprint on the servers, is programmable in three dimensions (data plane, control plane, and management plane), and performs at wire speed with low latency and low jitter.

The control and management planes’ programmability don’t really factor in, because they are not data intensive. All the DSNs include a few CPU cores, typically in the form of ARM cores, to execute control protocols and ...
