Not everybody agreed that the "N-ary Storage Model" (NSM) was the best approach for all workloads but it stayed dominant until hardware constraints, especially on caches, forced the community to revisit some of the alternatives. The first practical modern implementation is probably C-Store by Stonebraker, et al.

Flutter isn’t that, though: it runs natively on each platform, and it means each app runs just like it would run if it were written in Java/Kotlin or Objective-C/Swift on Android and iOS, pretty much. You need to know that because this implies that you need to take care of the many differences between these very diverse platforms.

Memory might be durable, but… …it is expected that caches and registers will remain volatile. Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose. So, we’re going to need to take care that everything we say is committed is truly durable, and that we can recover to a consistent state following a crash.

” This acts as a step to ensure durability by recovering lost data from the same journal files in case of crashes, power, and hardware failures between the checkpoints (see below) Here’s what the process looks like.

Byte-addressable non-volatile memory,) NVM will fundamentally change the way hardware interacts, the way operating systems are designed, and the way applications operate on data. The beauty of persistent memory is that we can use memory layouts for persistent data (with some considerations for volatile caches etc. What about security?

Looking beyond distributed caching, it’s their ability to perform data-parallel analysis that gives IMDGs such exciting capabilities. Application developers often deploy IMDGs as a distributed cache that sits between an application and its database; the IMDG offloads ephemeral data from the database.
