+summary: 'Simple memory-only storage module'
+...
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+This module acts as a normal storage module for Prosody, but saves all
+data in memory only. All data is lost when the server stops. This makes
+it useful for testing, or certain specialized applications.
+
+Details
+=======
+
+Because the accounts store will always begin empty, it is mostly useful
+combined with an authentication plugin which doesn't use Prosody's
+storage API, or with [mod\_auth\_any](mod_auth_any.md), or you can
+create user accounts manually each time the server starts.
+
+Compatibility
+=============
