Abstract

Within the memory of many of us there has been a slow progression of storage from early HDDs through modern HDDs. Then there was a discontinuity with the advent of SSDs with the unique performance improvements they delivered. We are now on the brink of a still more dramatic improvement in persistent memory with enormous capacity, memory-like speed and non-volatility. This will make the long-awaited promise of the convergence storage and memory a reality. This talk will explain this most recent development and describe its pervasive impact on systems architecture.
