Samsung Unveils Industry-First Memory Module Incorporating New CXL Interface | Audio Press Release

Samsung Electronics unveiled the industry’s first memory module supporting the new CXL interconnect standard.
Integrated with Samsung’s DDR5 technology, this CXL-based module will enable server systems to significantly scale memory capacity and bandwidth, accelerating AI and HPC workloads in data centers.
The rise of AI and big data has been fueling the trend toward heterogeneous computing, where multiple processors work in parallel to process massive volumes of data.
CXL enables high-speed, low latency communication between the host processor and devices such as accelerators, memory buffers and smart I/) devices, while expanding memory capacity and bandwidth well beyond what is possible today.
Samsung has been collaborating with several data center, server and chipset manufacturers to develop next-generation interface technology since the CXL consortium was formed in 2019.
* CXL: Compute Express Link
* DDR5: Double Data Rate 5
