Data Pipes: Declarative Control over Data Movement

Summary: Introduces Data Pipes, a declarative API to uniformly express and orchestrate data transfers across heterogeneous storage layers (caches, disks, RDMA/networks), decoupling movement logic from applications. Prototype maps pipes to existing hardware primitives and shows performance benefits. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
