The Microsoft Research Storage Toolkit enables accessible research in software defined storage by adding I/O classification functions to the Windows 8.1 storage stack and exposing selected flows of I/O requests to a user-supplied program written in C# which can inspect or modify them.

Parts of the toolkit have supported company’s recent research efforts, including IoFlow (SOSP13) and VDC (OSDI14), and Microdoft is releasing the toolkit as a contribution to the academic community in the hope of facilitating and encouraging further advances in software defined storage.
