|
|
|
WHO:
|
|
|
|
Gen-Z Consortium - an industry organization developing an
open-systems interconnect designed to provide high-speed,
low-latency, memory-semantic access to data and devices.
|
|

WHAT:
|
|
|
|
Gen-Z Consortium will be showcasing its multi-vendor technology
demonstration that utilizes FPGA-based Gen-Z adapters connecting
compute nodes to memory pools through a Gen-Z switch, creating a
fabric that connects multiple servers and media devices showcasing
memory sharing.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Consortium will also be showing a second technology
demonstration - the first-ever display of the Gen-Z connector linked
to Gen-Z backplanes and 1.0 IP running on a pluggable Gen-Z memory
drive.
