Abstract

Core Memory is making a comeback! Or that has been the promise for many years with technologies such as PCM, ReRAM, STT-RAM, etc. They have all promised faster than NAND access latencies, persistent storage, and memory bus access; with these attributes, there is the potential to change current storage programming models significantly. There are products, finally, coming to market that meet these criteria. These Storage Class Memories (SCM) have been the topic of R&D for the last few years and with the promise of near term product delivery the question is: how will Windows be enabled for such SCM products and how can applications take advantage of these capabilities. To be successful, SCM enablement must be done in a way that provides improved value for current applications while providing for new application paradigms.
