System and method for accelerated data processing in SSDs

A method comprising:

• receiving, by a processor, application function processing information;
• allocating, by the processor, a first storage processing accelerator (SPA) from a one or more SPAs in the processor, wherein an SPA of the one or more SPAs comprises one or more programmable processors;
• enabling, by the processor, the one or more programmable processors in the first SPA to execute a data processing operation based on the application function processing information;
• and
• determining, by the processor, that the data processing operation is completed by a programmable processor of the one or more programmable processors in the first SPA.

A method for offloading and acceleration of application functions from a host device to a storage device, the method comprising:

• receiving, at a processor, from a controller, application function processing information;
• selecting, by the processor, a first storage processing accelerators (SPAs) from one or more SPAs in the processor, wherein an SPA of the one or more SPAs comprises one or more programmable processors;
• transmitting a signal to a programmable processor of the programmable processors of the first SPA to execute a data processing operation according to the application function processing information;
• determining, by the processor, that the data processing operation is completed by the programmable processor of the programmable processors in the first SPA;
• and
• sending, by the processor, a result of the data processing operation to the controller.
