[citation][nom]Haserath[/nom]There is non-volatile ram in development. Not sure if it will ever become a real product, but it's there.[/citation]
I thought SSDs use non-volatile NAND RAM? or is that NAND flash? :\
Why do they call it a "could" system? Isn't this just a ram-based server? Cloud is like, for storing data and things right? "Run your shitz of the cloud". I can't see the point of it for cloud storage, would be too expensive. What's the point of the super-low latency if your ping to the RamCloud will be 200ms? A movie streams a ms late, big deal...
If it's used for regular server hosting (like game servers, etc) then i can see the point, because computation time would reduce.
