Take 10 – Watch a Computational Storage Trilogy
We’re all busy these days, and the thought of scheduling even more content to watch can be overwhelming. Great technical content – especially from the SNIA Educational Library – delivers what you need to know, but often it needs to be consumed in long chunks. Perhaps it’s time to shorten the content so you have more freedom to watch.
With the tremendous interest in computational storage, SNIA is on the forefront of standards development – and education. The SNIA Computational Storage Special Interest Group (CS SIG) has just produced a video trilogy – informative, packed with detail, and consumable in under 10 minutes!

Feedback Needed on New Persistent Memory Performance White Paper
A new SNIA Technical Work draft is now available for public review and comment – the SNIA Persistent Memory Performance Test Specification (PTS) White Paper.
A companion to the SNIA NVM Programming Model, the SNIA PM PTS White Paper (PM PTS WP) focuses on describing the relationship between traditional block IO NVMe SSD based storage and the migration to Persistent Memory block and byte addressable storage.
The PM PTS WP reviews the history and need for storage performance benchmarking beginning with Hard Disk Drive corner case stress tests, the increasing gap between CPU/SW/HW Stack performance and storage performance, and the resulting need for faster storage tiers and storage
products.

Register for the PIRL Conference Today
Registration is now open for the upcoming Persistent Programming in Real Life (PIRL) Conference – July 22-23, 2019 on the campus of the University of California San Diego (UCSD).
The 2019 PIRL event features a collaboration between UCSD Computer Science and Engineering, the Non-Volatile Systems Laboratory, and the SNIA to bring industry leaders in programming and developing persistent memory applications together for a two-day discussion on their experiences.
PIRL is a small conference, with attendance limited to under 100 people, including speakers. It will discuss what real developers have done, and want to do, with persistent memory. Most of the presentations will include demonstrations of live code showing new concepts. The conference is designed to be a meet-up for developers seeking to gain and share knowledge in the growing area of Persistent Memory development.
PIRL features a program of 18 presentations and 5 keynotes from industry-leading developers who have built real systems using persistent memory. They will share what they have done (and want to do) with persistent memory, what worked, what didn’t, what was hard, what was easy, what was surprising, and what they learned.
This year’s keynote presentations will be:
- * Pratap Subrahmanyam (Vmware): Programming Persistent Memory In A Virtualized Environment Using Golang
- * Zuoyu Tao (Oracle): Exadata With Persistent Memory – An Epic Journey
- * Dan Williams (Intel Corporation): The 3rd Rail Of Linux Filesystems: A Survival Story
- * Stephen Bates (Eideticom): Successfully Deploying Persistent Memory and Acceleration Via Compute Express Link
- * Scott Miller (Dreamworks): Persistent Memory In Feature Animation Production
Other speakers include engineers from NetApp, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Oracle, Sandia National Labs, Intel, SAP, Red Hat, and universities from around the world. Full details are available at the PIRL website.
PIRL will be held on the University of California San Diego campus at Scripps Forum, a state-of-the-art conference facility just a few meters from the beach. Discounted early registration ends July 10, so register today to ensure your seat.
