What is Everspin Technologies Spin-Torque Magnetoresistive RAM (ST-MRAM)

Chapter 14
Handbook of Research on Cloud Infrastructures for Big Data Analytics
The commercialization of the first 64Mb Spin-Torque MRAM is an industry milestone along the path to broader use of more varied non-volatile memory technologies to improve storage device reliability, and to increase performance. ST-MRAM gives system designers the benefit of persistent, high endurance storage or memory for applications that demand better reliability and that need the performance boost of DDR3 speed. The 64Mb density MRAM provides an ideal entry point for non-volatile buffer and cache memory in solid state and RAID storage systems as well as storage appliances. The 64Mb device will complement existing low cost memory technologies, reducing overall system cost and complexity.

Abstract
Cloud computing provides online access of users’ data anytime, anywhere, any application, and any device. Due to the slower read/write operation of conventional disk resident databases, they are incapable of meeting the real-time, Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) requirements of cloud-based application, specifically e-Commerce application. Since In-Memory database store the database in RAM, In-Memory databases drastically reduce the read/write times leading to high throughput of a cloud-based OLTP systems. This chapter discusses In-Memory real time analytics.
