Abstract:
Efficient communication between storage controllers can be performed. A storage system includes one or more backend switches that connect a first processor, a second processor, and one or more storage devices to each other. Each backend switch identifies a destination of a frame by referring to the frame received from the first processor. In a case where the destination of the frame is the second processor, each backend switch translates a first address, included in the frame, for specifying a location on the second memory in an address space of the first processor, into a second address for specifying the location on the second memory in an address space of the second processor, and transfers the frame including the second address to the second storage controller.

Claim (Index 10):
The storage system according to  claim 2 ,\n wherein the first storage controller receives host data to be written to the one or more storage devices from a host computer, and stores the host data in the first memory before the host data is written to one or more storage devices, and wherein the first processor reads the host data from the first memory after the host data is stored in the first memory, generates the frame with the host data as the first data, transfers the frame to the backend switch, and transfers, to the backend switch, a second frame, including the first address, for requesting at least part of the first data stored in the second memory to be read, wherein the backend switch translates the first address included in the second frame into the second address, and transfers the second frame to the second processor, wherein the second processor reads the at least part of the first data stored in the second memory in response to the request in the second frame, and returns the at least part of the first data to the backend switch, wherein the backend switch returns the at least part of the first data returned by the second processor, to the first processor, and wherein the first processor receives the at least part of the first data from the backend switch, and then notifies the host computer that writing of the host data is completed.
