It achieves this by selectively allocating memory based on the bandwidth between existing memory and expanded CXL memory. Additionally, the software improves performance by more than 12% over conventional systems through optimization based on access frequency, a feature which relocates frequently accessed data to faster memory.<\/p>\n<p>The semiconductor industry anticipates full commercialization of CXL in the second half of 2024, coinciding with the release of the first server CPUs featuring the &#8220;CXL 2.0&#8221; specification. In preparation for this, SK hynix is currently validating CXL 2.0 memory in 96 GB and 128 GB capacities with customers. The company plans to begin mass production by the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the development and spread of AI systems such as large language models (LLMs), it is now necessary to significantly improve not only semiconductors but also the level of system applications to support them,&#8221; said Youngpyo Joo, Head of Software Solution at SK hynix. &#8220;With this Linux integration and collaboration, we will strive to improve our status as a total AI memory solutions provider by innovating technologies and expanding the ecosystem in this field.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>About SK hynix Inc.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>SK hynix Inc., headquartered in Korea, is the world&#8217;s top-tier semiconductor supplier offering Dynamic Random Access Memory chips (&#8220;DRAM&#8221;), flash memory chips (&#8220;NAND flash&#8221;), and CMOS Image Sensors (&#8220;CIS&#8221;) for a wide range of distinguished customers globally.
