The essential point of the CXL memory market is expandability. The CXL memory allows for flexible memory expansion compared to current server market, where the memory capacity and performance are fixed once the server platform is adopted. CXL also has high growth potential as it is an interface spotlighted for high performance computing systems such as AI and big data related applications.
（CXL内存的本质就是可扩展性。与现在的服务器市场相比，一旦采用服务器平台，内存的容量和性能就固定不变了，相比之下CXL内存允许内存的灵活扩展。CXL还有很高的增长潜力，因为它是高性能计算系统（例如人工智能和大数据相关的应用程序）的重要接口）

The first CXL memory device developed by SK hynix is a 96GB product composed of 24Gb DDR5 DRAMs based on 1anm, which is the latest tech node. The company expects high customer satisfaction of this product with flexible configuration of bandwidth and capacity expanded cost-efficiently.
（SK hynix开发的第一款CXL内存设备是一款96GB产品，由基于最新技术节点1anm的24Gb DDR5 DRAM组成。公司期望通过灵活的带宽配置和经济高效的容量扩展来获得该产品的高客户满意度）

"I see CXL as a new opportunity to expand memory and create a new market. We aim to mass-produce CXL memory products by 2023, and will continue to develop cutting-edge DRAM technologies and advanced packaging technologies to launch various CXL-based bandwidth/capacity expandable memory solution products.”
——— said Uksong Kang, Head of DRAM Product Planning explaining SK hynix’s CXL memory deployment strategy.
（ “我预计CXL会是扩展内存和创新市场的一个机会，我们计划在2023对CXL内存实现量产，并会持续研发前沿DRAM和先进封装技术，以推出各种基于CXL的带宽/容量可扩展内存解决方案的产品。”

Various Collaboration Plans to Expand the CXL Memory Ecosystem

（扩展CXL内存生态的各种合作计划）

在这里插入图片描述

“Dell has been at the forefront of developing the CXL and EDSFF ecosystems, driving technology standards through the CXL and SNIA consortiums, and working closely with our partners on CXL product requirements to meet future workload demands. The SK hynix EDSFF E3.S form factor CXL memory module is an example of the innovative products that customers will be able to deploy to meet their growing memory needs,”
——— said Stuart Berke, Vice President and Fellow at Dell’s Infrastructure Solutions Group.
（“戴尔已经在CXL和EDSFF生态的研发前沿，通过CXL和SNIA联盟来推动科技标准，并在CXL产品需求与合作伙伴密切合作，来满足未来的工作量需求。SK海力士EDSFF E3.S的CXL内存模块是创新产品样例，客户能够部署产品去满足他们不断增长的内存需求。”
——— Stuart Berke，戴尔副总裁及基础设施解决方案团队研究员说道。）

Dr. Debendra Das Sharma, Intel Senior Fellow and co-GM of Memory and I/O Technologies at Intel added,
（Debendra Das Sharma博士，英特尔高级研究员兼英特尔内存和I/O技术联合总经理补充道，）

“CXL plays an essential role in extending memory for data center systems to evolve. We look forward to building and expanding the CXL memory ecosystem, as well as quickly developing technology standards through the CXL consortium, by collaborating with partners like SK hynix.”
（CXL在推动数据中心系统内存扩展领域发挥着至关重要的作用。我们期待通过与SK海力士这样的合作伙伴的合作，扩展CXL内存生态，通过CXL联盟来快速制定技术标准。）

Securing Technology Accessibility by Developing HMSDK dedicated to CXL Memory

（通过研发专用于CXL内存的HMSDK来确保技术可行性）

SK hynix also developed the Heterogeneous Memory Software Development Kit (HMSDK)) exclusively for CXL memory devices. The kit will include features to improve system performance and monitor the systems while running various workloads. The company plans to distribute it as an open source in the fourth quarter of 2022. It is expected that end users such as software developers will be able to utilize SK hynix’s CXL memory more effectively.
（SK海力士还为CXL内存开发专门的异构内存软件开发工具包（HMSDK））。该工具包将包括提高系统性能和监视系统运行在各种负载下情况的功能。公司计划在2022年第四季度将其作为开源软件发布。期待最终用户像是软件开发人员能够去更有效的使用SK海力士的CXL内存）

The company prepared a separate sample for evaluation to help customers evaluate it with ease. As there is currently no server which supports EDSFF E3.S x8 Lane, SK hynix replaced the dedicated samples’ EDSFF pins with PCIe to support customers install the samples to existing PCIe slots.
（公司准备了一个单独的样品去帮助用户轻松地评估。因为当前并没有支持EDSFF E3.S x8通道的服务器，SK海力士用PCIE替换了样品专用的EDSFF引脚来支持用户将样品安装在现有的PCIE插槽上）

SK hynix is planning to exhibit the product in upcoming events, beginning with Flash Memory Summit in early August, Intel Innovation at the end of September and Open Compute Project (OCP) Global Summit in October, while scheduling to demonstrate a demo with HMSDK as well. The company will actively deploy CXL memory related business to provide customers with the memory products they need in a timely manner.
（SK海力士计划在即将到来的活动上展示产品，例如从八月初的闪存峰会开始，九月底举行的英特尔创新发布，十月举行的开放计算项目（OCP）全球峰会并计划演示HMSDK）公司将积极部署与CXL内存相关的业务，并及时向客户提供他们需要的内存产品）
