Persistent Memory Usages In The Coming Decade

*
Persistent Memory
Microconference Session

One Line Summary

A discussion around persistent memory expectations from SW developers looking forward over the next decade.

Abstract

How will SW developers, both in-kernel and application-level, make use of features like DAX for persistent memory (pmem)? How do we see the ecosystem around pmem evolving over the next decade? This discussion will start with Andy describing active work from major ISVs around pmem and continue with an open discussion around some of the interesting future features that have come up. The intention of this discussion is both to share information on current development around pmem and to brainstorm on where Linux kernel development might focus on future pmem features.
