A tale of two abstractions: the case for object space

The Morning Paper

HotStorage 2019. This is a companion paper to the " persistent problem " piece that we looked at earlier this week, going a little deeper into the object pointer representation choices and the mapping of a virtual object space into physical address spaces. The hardware perspective. Application requirements.
