Zoned Namespace (ZNS) SSDs are the latest evolution of host-managed flash storage, enabling improved performance at a lower cost-per-byte than traditional block interface (conventional) SSDs. To date, there is no support for arranging these new devices in arrays that offer increased throughput and reliability (RAID). We identify key challenges designing redundant ZNS SSD arrays, such as managing metadata updates persisting partial stripe writes absence overwrite from device. present RAIZN,...
