High availability storage system

A storage server includes a plurality of solid state drives (SSDs), a plurality of input/output (IO) controllers, and a plurality of fabrics. Each fabric is configured to provide a fully connected mesh topology that connects each of the plurality of IO controllers to each of the plurality of SSDs. Each fabric comprises a management controller, a first switch layer comprising a first plurality of switches coupled to the plurality of IO controllers, and a second switch layer comprising a second plurality of switches coupled to a) the first plurality of switches and b) the plurality of SSDs, The first switch layer and the second switch layer together provide the fully connected mesh topology that connects every IO controller of the plurality of IO controllers to every SSD of the plurality of SSDs.
