Abstract
Grappling with any emerging new technology requires a disciplined approach to developing the new technology and understanding its application. Remote Persistent Memory is an exciting new technology, but its ultimate impact is not yet in focus. This presentation describes how a ‘top down’ approach is being applied to the development of Remote Persistent Memory as an emerging technology. To illustrate that top down approach, this presentation introduces the work underway in the industry to describe use cases for remote persistent memory, and how those use cases will drive fabric requirements.
