This rapid growth is driving up memory costs and putting increasing pressure on infrastructure budgets. For organizations deploying new servers, whether as part of a technology refresh or a new data center buildout, the rising cost of memory presents a significant challenge, underscoring the need for more cost-effective ways to expand memory capacity.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cAs AI inference workloads accelerate, rising memory costs are creating new challenges for organizations building and scaling AI data centers,\u201d said Satya Iyer, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Integrated Memory at Penguin Solutions. \u201cMany organizations already have significant investments in DDR4 memory that can be leveraged to address growing memory demands. By combining CXL technology with our proven memory screening and validation expertise, we&#8217;re helping customers maximize the value of existing memory investments, reduce infrastructure costs, and meet the performance and reliability requirements of production AI environments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nPenguin\u2019s SMART CXL-8F2W-D4 utilizes the Marvell<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> StructeraX<sup>\u2122<\/sup> CXL controller and supports up to eight DDR4 RDIMMs, making that memory available to compatible servers as additional system capacity. This helps IT teams address memory limitations for AI inference, in-memory databases, and other memory-intensive workloads.<\/p>\n<p>\nWith DDR4 memory available from previous-generation servers and data centers, Penguin Solutions has launched a program to recover memory during technology refresh cycles or source it through resellers. The program enables organizations to repurpose existing DDR4 inventory to address immediate memory needs.<\/p>\n<p>\nTo help customers deploy reused memory with confidence, Penguin Solutions combines the SMART CXL-8F2W-D4 with its <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.penguinsolutions.com%2Fen-us%2Fservices%2Fzefr-high-reliability-memory&amp;esheet=54640069&amp;newsitemid=20261112319858&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Zefr%26%23174%3B+ultra-high+reliability+memory+screening+process&amp;index=3&amp;md5=55e4fbf468bf9d0b3678d8f2051647ab\">Zefr\u00ae ultra-high reliability memory screening process<\/a>. The process simulates strenuous real-world conditions to validate DDR4 for production environments. Customer-owned DDR4 memory undergoes inspection, testing, and qualification before installation, and each populated card is validated in a compatible host system prior to shipment.<\/p>\n<p>\nBy repurposing existing DDR4 memory, organizations can potentially reduce the cost of expanding system memory capacity, extend the useful life of existing components, and maximize previous investments while addressing evolving workload requirements and the reliability and compatibility considerations associated with reused components.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe SMART CXL-8F2W-D4 is available for qualified customer opportunities on compatible CXL 2.0 platforms.
