The arrangement between Pamnesia and Intel will be pursued in phases from interoperability validation to collaboration on rack-scale AI infrastructure.
The Korean developer of link solutions for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure, Pamnesia has signed an MOU with Intel Korea to develop Computer Express Link (CXL) solutions for AI data centres. The arrangement will be pursued in phases from interoperability validation to collaboration on rack-scale AI infrastructure.
As AI workloads increase the pressure on memory held by individual servers, there is no existing mechanism through which a spare memory on one server could be shared with another. These two companies are trying to address the same challenge through collaboration centres on CXL fabric-based memory expansion architecture combining Intel Xeon Platform and Pamnesia’s link semiconductor, like CXL switch. This will provide device interoperability validation and performance optimisation on AI workloads.
The two companies will also be conducting proof-of-concept (PoC) demonstrations on reference architectures of rack-scale AI infrastructure. Panmnesia’s PCIe 6.4-CXL 3.2 Fusion Switch extends the range of memory that CPUs can expand and share over CXL to the rack level. This memory expansion, along with the flexible connectivity of the Switch, which is already available in silicon, further optimises performance.
