Public cloud providers seek to meet stringent performance requirements and low hardware
cost. A key driver of performance and cost is main memory. Memory pooling promises to …

The increasing demand for memory in hyperscale applications has led to memory becoming
a large portion of the overall datacenter spend. The emergence of coherent interfaces like …

New cache coherent interconnects such as CXL have recently attracted great attention
thanks to their excellent hardware heterogeneity management and resource disaggregation …

Memory is the most contended and least elastic resource in datacenter servers today.
Applications can use only local memory—which may be scarce—even though memory …

The monolithic server model where a server is the unit of deployment, operation, and failure
is meeting its limits in the face of several recent hardware and application trends. To improve …

Disaggregated memory can address resource provisioning inefficiencies in current
datacenters. Multiple software runtimes for disaggregated memory have been proposed in …

Resource-disaggregated architectures have risen in popularity for large datacenters.
However, prior disaggregation systems are designed for native applications; in addition, all …

Non-volatile memory and remote direct memory access (RDMA) provide extremely high
performance in storage and network hardware. However, existing distributed file systems …

Far memory systems allow an application to transparently access local memory as well as
memory belonging to remote machines. Fault tolerance is a critical property of any practical …

Memory disaggregation over RDMA can improve the performance of memory-constrained
applications by replacing disk swapping with remote memory accesses. However, state-of …
