New Types of Memory, their support in Linux, and how to use them via RDMA
by Rich Brueckner from High-Performance Computing News Analysis | insideHPC on (#3MJHA)
Christoph Lameter from Jump Trading LLC gave this talk at the OpenFabrics Workshop. "Recently new types of memory have shown up like HBM (High Bandwidth Memory), Optane, 3DXpoint, NVDIMM, NVME and various "nonvolatile" types memory. This talk gives a brief rundown on what is available and gives some example on how the vendors enable the actual use of this memory in the operating system (f.e. DAX and filesystems) and then show how an application would make use of this memory. In particular then we will be looking at what considerations are important for the use of RDMA to those memory devices."
