AI Infra Summit 2026: When You Can’t Buy More Memory, You Get More Out of What You Have

Squeezing More Out of Every ByteGoogle Fellow Dave Patterson had the line of AI Infra Summit 2026: We’re entering a “memory-centric era.” The pricing backs him up. Analyst Jim Handy of Objective Analysis tells us that DRAM average price increased 250% from 2Q25 to 2Q26. Businesses are slowing down because they simply cannot get enough of it.But everyone walked into the summit… Read more

Supercharging Agentic AI: How Leo X-Series Smart Memory Controllers Accelerate Inference With KV Cache Offload

In the early days of chat-based LLMs, the memory wall was driven by linear context growth. For each individual inference workload, expanding context length pushed available memory demand beyond capacity.But we are now in the agentic era. Agentic workloads operate on dynamic loops: They generate reasoning tokens, call external tools and APIs, parse returned data, and append state updates… Read more

The Ecosystem of Optical Fiber-to-Chip Connectors: Building Blocks of NPO and CPO for Scale-Up AI

We’ve been framing the increasing adoption of optical connectivity for scale-up applications with a clear organizing principle: Copper where you can, optics where you must. At today’s per-lane signaling rates in rack-scale AI fabrics, “must” is moving inside the rack. The reach and loss budgets available to passive copper compress with every protocol generation, and a growing number of… Read more
