Abstract
PCIe interconnect cannot cater to real time parallel processing . It still uses DMA and copy engines to move data from Host and endpoints for compute . With the advancement in coherent interconnects like CXL and CCIX , Accelerators and edge compute devices can work as parallel computing devices . Next generation interconnects will enable a new paradigm for compute , storage and network devices. Storage class memory(ex: 3DXP) can take advantage of coherent interconnects and play a key role in enabling next generation storage and memory devices . Compute can be moved close to memory which will enable new class of edge computing devices . The combination of Nextgen interconnects and storage class memory will benefit to Database systems , high performance computing and AI/ML use cases .
