We are happy to announce the new OpenSolaris project: iSER.
"iSER accelerates the iSCSI protocol by mapping the data transfer phases to Remote DMA (RDMA) operations. As a result an iSER initiator should be able to read and write data from an iSER target at high data rates with relatively low CPU utilization compared to iSCSI using TCP/IP. This project will implement both an iSER initiator and an iSER target. In addition, the project will implement an iSCSI port provider (iscsit) for COMSTAR adding an iSCSI transport option to the existing Fibre Channel and SAS support. The iSER target will be an extension of this iSCSI port provider."
