The Next Leap in Data Center Performance Arrives With Micron DDR5
January 06 2020 - 04:01PM
CES -- Micron Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: MU) today announced
that it has begun sampling DDR5 Registered DIMMs (RDIMM), based on
its industry-leading 1znm process technology. DDR5, the most
technologically advanced DRAM to date, will enable the next
generation of server workloads by delivering more than an 85%
increase in memory performance. DDR5 doubles memory density while
improving reliability at a time when data center system architects
seek to supply rapidly growing processor core counts with increased
memory bandwidth and capacity.
“Data center workloads will be increasingly challenged to
extract value from the accelerating growth of data across virtually
all applications,” said Tom Eby, senior vice president and general
manager of the Compute & Networking Business Unit at Micron.
“The key to enabling these workloads is higher-performance, denser,
higher-quality memory. Micron’s sampling of DDR5 RDIMMs represents
a significant milestone, bringing the industry one step closer to
unlocking the value in next-generation data-centric
applications.”
Advanced workloads resulting from rapidly expanding datasets and
compute-intensive applications have fueled processor core count
growth which will be bandwidth-starved by current DRAM technology.
DDR5 will deliver more than a 1.85 times increase in performance
compared to DDR4. DDR5 also enables the increased reliability,
availability and serviceability (RAS) that modern data centers
require.
As a global leader in memory technology, Micron brings more than
40 years of expertise in design, manufacturing, delivery and
support to its global list of partners and customers. Micron’s
portfolio of DDR5 SDRAM products sets the bar higher than ever
before. To learn more visit
