Memory Pooling

Reduce TCO by optimizing memory resource utilization

Requirements and Challenges

  • Memory accounts for a large percentage of server costs in the data center
  • Memory is stranded behind individual hosts, and leads to inefficient usage of available memory resources and higher costs
  • Dynamic allocation of memory resources across multiple hosts from a memory pool can improve utilization to reduce TCO
  • Heterogeneous, multi-CPU and CPU/GPU topologies can optimize performance and cost with memory pooling

Leo CXL Smart Memory Controllers Benefits

  • Increases CPU efficiency by enabling memory bandwidth expansion up to 89.6 GB/s and capacity expansion up to 2TB for cloud-server applications such as AI and ML
  • Plug and play operation for both CXL 1.1 and CXL 2.0 based solutions
  • Interoperates seamlessly with all major memory vendors at maximum DDR5 speeds
  • Prevents memory stranding through effective utilization of memory resources across multiple-hosts
  • Eliminates the need to over-provision memory to reduce overall TCO
  • Provides customizable RAS, telemetry and fleet management needed for cloud-scale deployment
  • Industry-leading security features to ensure end-to-end data integrity and protection
