DB - Challenges and Solutions for Fast Remote Memory Access

Challenges and Solutions for Fast Remote Persistent Memory Access Non-volatile main memory DIMMs (NVMMs), such as Intel’s Optane DC Persistent Memory modules, provide data durability with orders of magnitude higher performance than prior durable technologies. This paper explores the unique challenges that arise when building high-performance networked systems for NVMM. Compared to DRAM, we find that NVMMs have distinctive fundamental properties that pose unique challenges for networked access
