3 The Trend: Memory & Storage Convergence Today Volatile and non-volatile technologies are continuing to converge Memory DRAM DRAM DRAM/OPM** DRAM/OPM** Storage Disk/SSD PM* Disk/SSD PM* Disk/SSD PM* Disk/SSD New and Emerging Memory Technologies *PM = Persistent Memory **OPM = On-Package Memory HMC HBM RRAM 3DXPoint TM Memory MRAM PCM Low Latency NAND Managed DRAM 3

4 Key 2018 SNIA SSI Initiatives Persistent Memory (PM) Drive system memory and storage into a single, unified persistent memory entity, with OS and application development & support Support development of NVDIMM as platform for PM hardware Extend persistent memory to data center scale with activities in persistent memory over fabrics (PMoF) Storage Workloads Support capture of Real World Storage Workloads (RWSWs) for data center, enterprise, and client use cases Workloads available for public review and use by SNIA Technical Work Groups in the development of SNIA Technical Positions. Performance Benchmarks Define and develop industry standard tests and methodologies for the comparative performance test of solid state storage PTS 2.0 benchmark tests for enterprise and client solid state storage Investigate appropriate benchmark testing for Persistent Memory 4

5 Persistent Memory (PM) Vision Persistent Memory Brings Storage Fast Like Memory Persistent Like Storage To Memory Slots For system acceleration For real-time data capture, analysis and intelligent response 5

6 Relative media speeds Memory (10 s ns) SSD (10 s us) 1 Mile HDD (10 s ms) 6

7 Latency (ns) Storage vs. Memory 100,000,000 10,000,000 1,000, ,000 10,000 1, HDD NVMe Flash Typical NUMA range: ns Typical context switch range: above 2-3 us Latency Budgets Context Switch NUMA 7

8 Technology support driven thru TWGs and SIGs Educate developers and users on Persistent Memory (PM) and Solid State Storage Develop and promote models and architectures Collaborate with leading industry alliances and organizations TWG (Technical Workgroups) NVM Programming Model Solid State Storage Device (S3) Solid State Storage Systems (S4) SIG (Special Interest Groups) NVDIMM Data Recovery / Erase PCIe SSD Committee Technical Development Committee 8

9 Technology Support from SNIA TWGs NVM Programming TWG & the NVM Programming Model 40 contributing SNIA member companies Rallying the industry around a view of Persistent Memory that is: Application centric Achievable today NVDIMMS (today) Built for tomorrow New: Media, Applications, Networking, Processors Vendor neutral Supported in MS Windows & Linux DAX ( Direct Access for files ) Next Step: Persistent Memory over Fabrics (PMoF) 9

10 Application Horizons Until Recently Horizon 1: PM Middleware Horizon 2: PM Libraries Horizon 3: Languages Application Application Application Compiler File System File System PM Library Application Disk Driver File System File System SSD PM PM PM 10

11 NVDIMM Special Interest Group Member companies collaborate to: Provide education on how system vendors can design in NVDIMMs Communicate existing industry standards, and areas for vendor differentiation Help technology and solution vendors whose products integrate NVDIMMs to Communicate their benefits and value to the greater market Develops vendor agnostic user perspective case studies, best practices and vertical industry requirements Evangelizes their activities at conferences, tradeshows, and by webcasts and presentations 11

12 Technology Support from SNIA SIGs NVDIMM Special Interest Group 16 member companies Contributing to Common PM Specifications Common PM Messaging Common PM Taxonomy PM Ecosystem Development Demonstrating that Powerful Persistent Memory is here NVDIMM-N Memory-mapped DRAM JEDEC-standard Easily exploited in Microsoft Windows Server 16 for extremely high performance read/write workloads, such as SQL 12

13 NVDIMM Example I removed the text box with "click to add content"

14 NVM Programming Model & NVDIMMs The NVM Programming Model is perfect for NVDIMMs Multi-vendor PM Mode memory mapped storage available today On display in the SNIA exhibit booth Use the NVM programming model with NVDIMMs Enable a path forward for applications Lead the way to innovation in NVM optimized software 14
