Disaggregated Memory for High Performance Computing

Explore a 41-minute conference presentation from SNIA Storage Developer Conference 2024 that delves into the evolution and future of memory systems in High Performance Computing (HPC). Learn about HPE's groundbreaking "memory-driven computing" concept, including developments in memristor ReRAM, mid-board optics, and the transition from GenZ to CXL specifications. Examine current HPC architectures through case studies of leading systems like HPE Cray EX at Frontier and Aurora, while gaining insights into design challenges, research developments, and emerging technologies such as CXL memories and computational storage. Discover how the end of Moore's Law and Dennard scaling impacts HPC architecture, and understand the potential role of new technologies including HBM4 and 800Gb fabric interconnects in shaping next-generation computing systems. Presented by David Emberson from Hewlett Packard Enterprise, gain comprehensive knowledge about memory system design challenges, research progress, and future opportunities in high-performance computing architectures.
