In the previous article, I wrote about a new upcoming Xeon platform feature, Data Streaming Accelerator (DSA) - a memory-to-memory DMA engine, and what opportunities and challenges it presents. I outlined the approach we are taking in Persistent Memory Development Kit (PMDK) to expose asynchronous …
Read MoreOne of the greatest benefits of Persistent Memory is that it’s directly accessible by the CPU. But that can also be one of its downsides for specific use cases. For example, if you want to use PMem as an ultra-fast storage device with low access latency. PMem as storage impedance mismatch The …
Read MoreWhat is pmemstream? Libpmemstream implements a pmem-optimized log data structure and provides stream-like access to data. It presents a contiguous logical address space, divided into regions, with log entries of arbitrary size. We intend for this library to be a foundation for various, more complex …
