[Ksummit-2013-discuss] [ATTEND] Discussion of the new persistent memory devices and the storage/file system stack

[Ric Wheeler]

Hi Ted,

Having time at one of the break out sessions to discuss the impact of these new 
parts and possibly other new storage devices (those that support atomic write, 
new shingled drives, etc) would be great to have during one of the Wednesday slots.

The persistent memory parts do have impact that range beyond the scope of the 
just the IO path since we also need to look at what it means when a reboot/power 
cycle does not clean up state.

Key people to have in that discussion would be Matthew, Jens and Jeff Moyer who 
has been active with the industry group looking at the application interfaces 
persistent memory part should provide.

For my part, I would like to attend the Wednesday break out session if it takes 
place, I don't personally see my attendance at the Thursday/Friday sessions as 
all that useful.

Thanks!

Ric
