 4.  Centralized caching can improve overall cluster memory utilization. When relying on the OS buffer cache at each DataNode, repeated reads of a block will result in all *n* replicas of the block being pulled into buffer cache. With centralized cache management, a user can explicitly pin only *m* of the *n* replicas, saving *n-m* memory.
 
+5.  HDFS supports non-volatile storage class memory (SCM, also known as persistent memory) cache in Linux platform. User can enable either memory cache or SCM cache for a DataNode. Memory cache and SCM cache can coexist among DataNodes. In the current implementation, the cache data in SCM will be cleaned up when DataNode restarts. Persistent HDFS cache support on SCM will be considered in the future.

 In order to lock block files into memory, the DataNode relies on native JNI code found in `libhadoop.so` or `hadoop.dll` on Windows. Be sure to [enable JNI](../hadoop-common/NativeLibraries.html) if you are using HDFS centralized cache management.
 
+Currently, there are two implementations for persistent memory cache. The default one is pure Java based implementation and the other is native implementation which leverages PMDK library to improve the performance of cache write and cache read.
+
+To enable PMDK based implementation, please follow the below steps.
+
+1. Install PMDK library. Please refer to the official site http://pmem.io/ for detailed information.
+
+2. Build Hadoop with PMDK support. Please refer to "PMDK library build options" section in `BUILDING.txt` in the source code.
+
+To verify that PMDK is correctly detected by Hadoop, run the `hadoop checknative` command.
