Zusammenfassung:The moving computation on the edge or near to data is the new trend that can break the bandwidth wall and to unleash the power of next generation NVM or SCM memory. File system is the important OS subsystem that plays the role of mediator between the user-space application and storage device. The key goal of the file system is to represent the file abstraction and to build the files' namespace. In the current paradigm the file system needs to copy the metadata and user data in the DRAM of the host with the goal to access and to modify the user data on the host side. The DAX approach doesn't change the concept but to build the way to bypass the page cache via the direct access to file's content in persistent memory. Generally speaking, for the case of data-centric computing, the file system needs to solve the opposite task not to copy data into page cache but to deliver the processing activity near data on the storage device side.
