’ Stateless is fine until you need state, at which point the coarse-grained solutions offered by current platforms limit the kinds of application designs that work well. On the Cloudburst design teams’ wish list: A running function’s ‘hot’ data should be kept physically nearby for low-latency access.

My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory.

Coupled with stateless application servers to execute business logic and a database-like system to provide persistent storage, they form a core component of popular data center service archictectures.
