1. An apparatus comprising:
processing circuitry configured to:
communicate with a plurality of clients remote to the apparatus;
allocate, to each client of the plurality of clients,a buffer, an input/output (I/O) queue pair comprising an I/O command submission queue and an I/O command completion queue, and a Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) queue pair comprising an NVMe command submission queue and an NVMe command completion queue, operable to access storage controlled by an NVMe controller;
exchange, using a network input/output (I/O) device, information with each of the clients of the plurality of clients using the I/O queue pair allocated to the client; and
validate, using the network I/O device, commands received from one or more of the clients of the plurality of clients, wherein, upon successful validation of a command, the network I/O device communicates the command to the NVMe command submission queue, whereby the storage controller by the NVMe controller is not directly accessible to the plurality of clients.
