Un protocole qui gère des périphériques block (ATA ou scsi) sur le réseau de façon transparente pour le système.
"AoE sends ATA commands over Ethernet frames without the overhead of IP. Communication is done via MAC addresses and is non-routable. Best of all, AoE devices appear as regular block storage. That means you can do with them whatever you would do with local storage. You can manage AoE storage with LVM, create RAID arrays out of your AoE devices, or put a cluster file system on top of them."
