Call For Papers

HotStorage 2026 (USENIX Workshop on Hot Topics in Storage and File Systems) is a CCF C conference held in Prague, Czech Republic on 2026-09-28. The paper submission deadline is 2026-06-05. Acceptance notifications are sent on 2026-07-24.

Overview The HotStorage workshop provides a forum for cutting-edge storage research, a place where academic researchers and industry practitioners can discuss new opportunities and challenges in storage technology. Submissions should propose new research directions, explore non-traditional approaches, or report on noteworthy or counterintuitive learnings and experience in emerging areas. Submissions will be judged on their originality, technical merit, topical relevance, and the likelihood of leading to insightful discussions that will influence future storage systems design and applications. In keeping with the goals of the HotStorage workshop, the review process will favor submissions that are forward-looking and open-ended. If you are only a couple of months away from submitting to FAST, NSDI, EuroSys, VLDB, OSDI, SOSP, ASPLOS, SoCC, etc. you are probably already past the sweet spot for HotStorage. If you have a forward-looking or unorthodox idea or new research, and some evidence or early working system to support your view, but still have open questions, please consider bringing your work to HotStorage. The program committee will also welcome position papers that solicit discussion on controversial topics, introduce emerging methods and paradigms, or call out for new research directions. Topics of Interest HotStorage '26 welcomes innovative submissions in the broad areas of storage, data management, data applications, and cross-disciplinary topics that relate to these. Some specific areas are listed below but the list is not exhaustive: Application- and workload-specific storage Archival and backup storage Deduplication and compression Caching, tiering, and replication Cloud storage Disaggregated and distributed storage Energy-efficient storage File systems Flash/SSD Key-value and NoSQL stores Memory-centric storage systems Mobile and edge device (sensors, home, and IoT, etc.) storage New storage hardware, DPUs, persistent memory Next generation storage (DNA, glass) Performance modeling and prediction for storage Programming models and compilers for storage Quality of service for storage Security and privacy of storage Storage reliability, erasure coding Storage virtualization Storage systems for ML and applying ML to storage systems
