Compute Express Link™ (CXL) is a high-speed CPU-to-Device and CPU-to-Memory interconnect designed to accelerate next-generation data center performance. This presentation will provide an update on the latest advancements in CXL specification development, its use cases and industry differentiators. CXL enables a high-speed, efficient interconnect between the CPU and platform enhancements and workload accelerators. Attendees will learn how CXL technology: Allows resource sharing for higher performance Reduces complexity and lowers overall system cost Permits users to focus on target workloads as opposed to redundant memory management Builds upon PCI Express® infrastructure Supports new use cases for caching devices and accelerators, accelerators with memory and memory buffers. The CXL Consortium has released the CXL 1.1 Specification and the next generation of the spec is currently under development. Consortium members can contribute to spec development and help shape the ecosystem
