About HotStorage 2026
HotStorage 2026, the 18th ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Storage and File Systems, takes place September 28–29, 2026 at the Clarion Congress Hotel Prague. It is a compact workshop of roughly 150 participants, now run by ACM and co-located with SOSP 2026.
Who should attend
The audience is storage and file system researchers, flash and non-volatile memory architects, and distributed storage engineers.
Why it matters
HotStorage is where early-stage storage systems ideas are aired before they mature into full papers or products. For data infrastructure practitioners it gives an early view of work on flash, non-volatile memory and distributed storage design.
