SK hynix presented a broad range of its solutions at the summit, including its leading HBM* <\/sup>(HBM3\/3E), CXL* <\/sup>, and AiM* <\/sup> products for generative AI. The company also unveiled some of the latest additions to its product portfolio including its DDR5 RDIMM, MCR DIMM, enterprise SSD (eSSD), and LPDDR CAMM* <\/sup>\u00a0devices.<\/p>\n

* <\/sup>High Bandwidth Memory (HBM): A high-value, high-performance product that possesses much higher data processing speeds compared to existing DRAMs by vertically connecting multiple DRAMs with through-silicon via (TSV).
\n* <\/sup>Compute Express Link (CXL): A next-generation memory solution that increases the memory bandwidth of server systems with traditional DRAM products to improve performance and easily expand memory capacity.
\n* <\/sup>Accelerator in Memory (AiM): SK hynix\u2019s PIM semiconductor product name, which includes GDDR6-AiM.
\n* <\/sup>Low Power Double Data Rate Compression Attached Memory Module (LPDDR CAMM): A solution developed based on the LPDDR package in line with the next-generation memory standard (CAMM) for laptops and mobile devices. Compared to conventional So-DIMM modules, LPDDR CAMM has a single-sided configuration which is half as thick and offers improved capacity and power efficiency.<\/em><\/p>\n

Visitors to the HBM exhibit could see HBM3, which is utilized in NVIDIA\u2019s H100, a high-performance GPU for AI, and also check out the next-generation HBM3E<\/a><\/span>. Due to their low-power consumption and ultra-high-performance, these HBM solutions are more eco-friendly and are particularly suitable for power-hungry AI server systems.

\u25b2 Figure 3. CXL-based CMS 2.0, pooled memory, and memory expander solutions being demonstrated at the event<\/p>\n

Three of SK hynix\u2019s key CXL products were demonstrated at the event, including its CXL-based computational memory solution (CMS)<\/a><\/span>* <\/sup> 2.0. A next-generation memory solution that integrates computational functions into CXL memory, CMS 2.0 uses NMP* <\/sup> to minimize data movement between the CPU and memory. CMS 2.0 was applied to SK Telecom\u2019s spatial data analysis and visualization solution based on Lightning DB which analyzes foot traffic in real time, illustrating CMS 2.0\u2019s data processing power equivalent to a server CPU. Moreover, the demonstration highlighted that CMS 2.0 can improve data processing performance and energy efficiency.<\/p>\n

* <\/sup>Computational Memory Solution (CMS): \u00a0A memory solution that offers the functions of machine learning and data filtering, which are frequently performed by big data analytics applications. Just like CXL, CMS\u2019s memory capacity is highly scalable.
\n* <\/sup>Near-Memory Processing (NMP): A memory architecture which moves the compute capability next to the main memory to address CPU memory bottlenecks and improve processing performance.<\/p>\n

The company also demonstrated its CXL-based pooled memory solution which can significantly reduce idle memory usage and shorten the overhead time of data movement in distributed processing environments such as AI and big data. The demonstration, which featured a technological collaboration with software provider MemVerge, showcased how CXL-based pooled memory solutions can improve system performance in AI and big data distributed processing systems.<\/p>\n

Additionally, SK hynix demonstrated its CXL-based memory expander applied to Meta\u2019s software caching engine, CacheLib, which showed how the CXL-based memory solution optimizes software for improved performance and cost savings.<\/p>\n

AiM, a game-changing technology that redefines memory\u2019s role in AI inference, was also presented at the booth. A subset of SK hynix\u2019s PIM* <\/sup>\u00a0portfolio, AiM promises to revolutionize machine learning, high-performance computing, and big data applications while reducing operating costs. The company demonstrated its GDDR6-AiM<\/a><\/span>, a solution which incorporates computational capabilities into the memory and improves the performance and efficiency of data-intensive generative AI inference systems. Additionally, a demonstration was held for the prototype of AiMX<\/span><\/a>* <\/sup>, an innovative generative AI accelerator card based on GDDR6-AiM.<\/p>\n

* <\/sup>Processing-In-Memory (PIM): An advanced technology that combines computational capabilities and memory within just one die to perform the best computing capability.
\n* <\/sup>Accelerator-in-Memory based Accelerator (AiMX): SK hynix\u2019s accelerator card featuring a GDDR6-AiM chip which is specialized for large language models.<\/p>\n
