Intel – CXL™  Type 2 Compliance & Traffic Demo using 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors and Intel FPGAs

Intel showed CXL Type 2 tests: (1) pre-release version of CXL compliance testing (CV App) for Type 2, and (2) a CXL Traffic Generator for Type 2 data transactions (cxl.cache and cxl.mem). The demo uses the following ingredients: 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors in Intel Archer City CRB, Intel® AgilexTM I-Series Development Kit (B0 variant),  Intel FPGA CXL IP, FPGA design example and CXL hard/soft IP generated by Intel Quartus 22.3, CXL IP p/n = IP=CXLTYP2.

MemVerge – Software for Memory Visualization, Tiering & Pooling

​At SC'22, MemVerge demonstrated the Memory Viewer and Memory Machine software for CXL. The demo showcased the Memory viewer discovering and visualizing the physical layout of memory on the DDR and CXL busses, while the process monitor “heatmap” shows memory bandwidth usage and utilization by workload. Attendees gained a better understanding of how the Memory Machine software provides a Redis workload with transparent access to a pool of DDR and CXL memory tiered by Memory Machine.
