Large CXL Memory Expansion Systems and Workloads

Explore the architecture and implementation of large-scale CXL memory expansion systems designed for 100 TiB-class workloads in this 18-minute conference presentation. Learn how CXL Consortium members Liqid and Micron are deploying novel CXL-based system architectures to maximize performance and capacity for demanding applications. Discover how these systems dramatically increase size limits for what fits in memory while enabling composable provisioning of large amounts of memory for both memory-expansion pooling and shared access scenarios. Understand how existing applications and workflows can achieve memory de-duplication through shared memory using the open-source fabric-attached memory file system (famfs), and see how these solutions enable data scaling without sharding for workloads that cannot be effectively sharded or quantized.
