Abstract

This tutorial describes 8 new technologies currently under development in research labs around the world that promise to replace today's NAND Flash technology. These new technologies - collectively called Storage Class Memory (SCM) - provide higher performance, lower cost, and more energy efficient solutions than today's SLC/MLC NAND Flash products. In this tutorial we extrapolate SCM technology trends to 2020 and analyze the impact on storage systems. The material is intended for those people that are closely watching the impact to the storage industry - brought about by NAND Flash - and want to understand what's next.

Learning Experiences:

• State of the art for NAND Flash technology
• 8 technologies that could replace NAND Flash
