Leave it to Rob Peglar, SNIA Board Member and the MC of SNIA’s 7th annual Persistent Memory Summit to capture the Summit day as persistently fun with a metric boatload of great presentations and speakers! And indeed it was a great day, with fourteen sessions presented by 23 speakers covering the breadth of where PM is in 2019 – real world, application-focused, and supported by multiple operating systems. Find a great recap on the Forbes blog by Tom Coughlin of Coughlin Associates.
Attendees enjoyed live demos of Persistent Memory technologies from AgigA Tech, Intel, 
SMART Modular, the SNIA Solid State Storage Initiative, and Xilinx. Learn more about what they presented here.
And for the first time as a part of the Persistent Memory Summit, SNIA hosted a Persistent Memory Programming Hackathon sponsored by Google Cloud, where SNIA PM experts 
mentored software developers to do live coding to understand the various tiers and modes of PM and what existing methods are available to access them. Upcoming SNIA SSSI on Solid State Storage blogs will give details and insights into “PM Hacking”. Also sign up for the SNIAMatters monthly newsletter to learn more, and stay tuned for upcoming Hackathons – next one is March 10-11 in San Diego.
