Read press release(opens in a new tab)

Flexible memory capacity expansion for data-intensive workloads

Memory capacity expansion that optimizes cost and performance balancing compute and memory resources intelligently.

Ability to scale servers with high-capacity CXL standards-based memory

Micron memory expansion modules using Compute Express Link™ (CXL) enable server OEMs to scale, integrate and expand memory capacity for a multitude of application workloads.

Optimized performance beyond the direct-attach memory channels

Flexibility to compose servers with higher memory capacity and low latency to meet application workload demands with up to 24%1 greater memory bandwidth per core versus RDIMM only.

Lower total cost of ownership (TCO)

Greater utilization of compute and memory resources for bounded applications, reducing CapEx and OpEx.

Technology Enablement Program for Micron memory expansion using CXL

The Technology Enablement Program (TEP) for memory expansion using CXL offers a path into Micron to gain early access to technical information and support, electrical and thermal models, as well as memory products to aid in the design, development and introduction of next-generation computing platforms.

Micron’s perspective on impact of CXL on DRAM bit growth rate

Modern compute architectures are prone to a phenomenon known as the “memory wall” problem. Compute Express Link provides the necessary architecture to bring balance to the compute and memory scaling gap. It is the basis for creating a new vector to achieve economically viable memory sharing solutions that will have an impact on DRAM bit growth rate.
