A new technical paper titled “Managed-Retention Memory: A New Class of Memory for the AI Era” was published by researchers at Microsoft. “AI clusters today are one of the major uses of High Bandwidth ...

Memory has been a key limiting factor in the design of processor-based systems since, well, forever. The number of weird and wonderful storage systems is actually pretty large, although many designers ...

At the Flash Memory Summit, it seemed like almost every speaker was showing a graph talking about how new "storage class memory" or "persistent memory" fit into the hierarchy of storage in a system.

With HPE’s announcement last week that it will offer storage-class memory (SCM) in its 3PAR and Nimble arrays, we have entered a new phase in the architecture of storage and a potential step-change in ...

Storage performance is never good enough. DRAM speeds are measured in nanoseconds, but is volatile/non-persistent, meanwhile, even the fastest non-volatile storage – such as Intel Optane/3D XPoint – ...
