This IDC Technology Spotlight Study, sponsored by Rambus, discusses server demands on DRAM and different workloads. DRAM must dynamically adjust to the needs of these disparate workloads. The history of dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) is characterized by the ability of the technology to adapt to the increasingly specialized real-time memory requirements of the applications that utilize it. The COVID-19 pandemic changed the average DRAM content by workload balance in servers. While workloads require servers to adapt to their specific needs, servers must be based on standardized, scalable technologies to be affordable. Over time, DDR5 will be essential to meet the average server’s DRAM needs.

HBM2E Raises the Bar for Memory Bandwidth
Data Center Evolution: Accelerating Computing with PCI Express 5.0
The PCI Express® (PCIe) interface is the critical backbone that moves data at high bandwidth between various compute nodes such as CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and workload-specific accelerators. The rise of cloud-based computing and hyperscale data centers, along with high-bandwidth applications like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), require the new level of performance of PCI Express 5.0.
