Abstract

A method for constructing a persistent memory index in a non-uniform memory access architecture includes: maintaining partial persistent views in a persistent memory and maintaining a global volatile view in a DRAM; an underlying persistent memory index processing a request in a foreground thread when cold data is accessed; when hot data is accessed, reading a key-value pair for a piece of hot data in the global volatile view in response to a query operation carried in the request, and in response to an insert/update/delete operation carried in the request, updating a local partial persistent view and the global volatile view; and in response to a hotspot migration, a background thread generating new partial persistent views and a new global volatile view, and recycling the partial persistent views and the global volatile view for old hot data into the underlying persistent memory index.
