At Intel Innovation, we showcased how Astera Labs is the first to break through the memory wall. The memory wall is a performance scaling challenge that occurs when computing performance has significantly outpaced the memory subsystem performance.
Our Leo CXL Smart Memory Controllers are the industry’s highest performance controllers on the market, and combined with 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors, Leo enables unprecedented performance by increasing memory bandwidth and capacity by 50%, and decreased latency by 25%. We use hardware-based interleaving of the CPU’s native memory with CXL-attached memory with Leo to deliver unprecedented performance. And, because it’s a hardware-based solution, new and existing applications can take immediate benefit of the CXL-attached solution and seamlessly plug and play into the system.
