The emerging Compute Express Link (CXL) is making big progress as the cache-coherent interconnect for processors, memory expansion and accelerators. At #OCPSummit23, we got and update from Siamak Tavallaei, Advisor to the Board from CXL Consortium:
- He discusses the three major elements of the AI-powered data center challenge: the compute element, the memory needed for the compute, and the interconnect.
- He explains how the CXL specification allows for the creation of an environment with many interconnected systems through high-speed, low-latency interconnects that participate with coherent memory.
- He elaborates on how CXL enables us to interface with emerging memory technologies, providing larger memory blocks to accelerator elements and increasing the bandwidth available to compute elements.
