[Beowulf] RRAM and persistent memory

[Hearns, John]

Interesting stuff:

I really do think that we are on the brink of seeing a new paradigm for memory on big machines.
Maybe I will eat my words!

I also went to a very good talk by Rik Wheeler of Redhat  at FOSDEM over the weekend, on persistent memory.

As an aside, the HPC developer room at FOSDEM was a great success, and is sure to be repeated next year.
If any Beowulfers are there next year, we should arrange to consume beers.

Definitely worh looking at Easybuild if you are a cluster wrangler:
