Abstract

The last decade has seen tremendous developments in memory and storage technologies, starting with Flash Memory and continuing with the upcoming Storage-Class Memories. Combined with an explosion of data processing, data analytics, and machine learning, this led to a segmentation of the memory and storage market. Consequently, the traditional storage hierarchy, as we know it today, might be replaced by a multitude of storage hierarchies, with potentially different depths, each tailored for specific workloads. In this context, we explore in this “Kurz Erklärt” the state of memory technologies and reflect on their future use with a focus on data management systems.

Intel has discontinued its Xeon Phi series, albeit some of its concepts have converged with the Xeon Scalable series.
 
2
SCM is also referred to as Persistent Memory, Non-Volatile RAM (NVRAM), or simply Non-Volatile Memory.
 
3
Intel and Micron did not disclose so far the technology that 3D XPoint is based on, albeit it has been speculated that it is based on Phase-Change Memory [8].
