“Persistent memory technologies will radically redefine how we harness and understand the rapidly increasing volume and velocity of mass data, and enable us to realize new data possibilities across a broad range of Big Data and Fast Data applications. On-going collaboration with ecosystem partners and customers to establish standardized interfaces for CPUs and emerging memories, including the important work done by the Gen-Z Consortium, is pivotal to realizing the full potential of persistent memory.” – Richard New, vice president of research at Western Digital
