Cost Modelling for Optimal Data Placement in Heterogeneous Main Memory

Summary: Cost model for heterogeneous main memory placement in IMDBMS (DRAM vs PMEM) using lightweight workload signatures. Prototype on SAP HANA shows all-PMEM hurts analytics; pareto-optimal placement preserves >75% of table data in PMEM with ≤10% DRAM-baseline loss. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
