Kioxia has a line of products (EM6) that has an embedded Marvell NVMeoF/{TCP,RDMA} controller and Foxconn has a chassis that can take them and expose them just directly on the network. neat stuff.

Neat if you can stomach paying for the novelty. Let's see an open product that does the same for any old M.2 stick
SPDK + RDMA works just fine :)
Yeah i know the software exists; it's finding ways to actually build systems from it that sucks. 2.5 gigabit ethernet has absolutely killed dead all momentum for getting faster interfaces in consumer hardware and SBCs unfortunately. I don't want to build a 2-drive OSD using a comparatively gargantuan microATX motherboard.
