The session is organized by members of the SNIA SSSI Non Volatile Memory Programming working group (note that the group is seeking a snappier name).
In addition, a recent effort is under way to make use of the many PCIe-based interfaces that are developing as a consequence of the high speed data transfers that are possible using flash memory and future non-volatile memory devices.
Flash memory and emerging technology non-volatile memory solutions are remak the face of enterprise storage.
In the past, people would try to make a form of non-volatile memory by connecting a static, volatile memory chip to a battery.
Control of power utilization in these data centers will drive new tiered storage approaches with solid state storage combined with HDDs and with new non-volatile memory using either flash memory or new approaches such as MRAM.
The development of new technology solutions, channels and open standards to support operating system and other programing that takes advantage of the use of solid state storage for traditional storage as well as non-volatile memory will change the face of our technical culture for many years to come.
And AgigA Tech makes so-called non-volatile Random Access Memory (RAM) that helps people store and retrieve rapidly changing data far more quickly than the slow-poke disk drive technology that keeps data centers humming.
We have heard from our customers that these types of systems are unreliable and often malfunction, whereas our memory is intrinsically non-volatile.
During a recent LSI technology event EverSpin was showcasing its recently announced spin-torque MRAM memory that provides a non-volatile replacement for DRAM.
MRAM, a next-generation memory based on magnetic materials, has emerged as an alternative to SRAM because it is non-volatile, cutting leak current during standby status.
ENGADGET: Toshiba goes perpendicular to solve MRAM's power issues, rethink cache memory
