What is CXL?
CXL ("Compute Express Link") is a technology for improving memory performance by pooling multiple types of memory. The end goal is to improve performance, especially in provisioning and scaling applications.
"Our customers are excited to see signals like this coming from our data," says Tab Schadt, CEO of Liftr Insights. "These are important data points for investors and market intelligence analysts at corporates."
CXL 1.1 is enabled in the latest generation (Generation 9) processors from both AMD and Intel. CXL will create new revenue opportunities in the public cloud for companies such as Marvell and Broadcom as vendors of CXL switches. This is also a revenue opportunity for memory, networking, and accelerator vendors.
"What happens in public cloud mirrors and leads what happens in private cloud," says Schadt. "So, these changes indicate additional growth happening in the more opaque private cloud."
CXL is particularly valuable to accelerators, which have expanded significantly over the 4 years of Liftr data. That same history can be leveraged to compare trajectory of newer rollouts, such as these CXL-ready instances.
Schadt states, "Seeing CXL-ready instances is just the beginning. Now to watch how quickly they get adopted and propagate. The rate of growth is even more important than the first sighting. Our customers know there are more investment signals to come!"
