What’s New: Today at a gathering of global influencers in
Seoul, South Korea, Intel outlined a series of new technology
milestones and highlighted its ongoing investment and commitment to
advance memory and storage in the data-centric computing era. This
includes providing customers with unique Intel® Optane™ technology
and Intel® 3D NAND solutions for cloud, artificial intelligence and
network edge applications.

Intel in April 2019 introduced Intel
Optane memory H10 with solid-state storage. The device combines the
responsiveness of Intel Optane technology with the storage capacity
of Intel Quad Level Cell (QLC) 3D NAND technology in an M.2 form
factor. (Credit: Intel Corporation)
“The world is generating data at an
accelerating rate, and businesses are increasingly becoming
overwhelmed with how to efficiently process it. Harvesting value
from all this data will be critical in separating the winners from
losers. It will require cutting-edge innovation in the
memory-and-storage hierarchy, which is what we are driving at
Intel.” –Rob Crooke, Intel senior vice president and general
manager of the Non-Volatile Memory Solutions Group
What Intel Announced: Among the milestones discussed at
the event were Intel’s plans to operate a new Optane technology
development line at its facilities in Rio Rancho, New Mexico; the
announcement of the second-generation of Intel Optane DC Persistent
Memory, code-named “Barlow Pass,” scheduled for release in 2020
with Intel’s next-generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processor; and
Intel’s industry-first demonstration of 144-layer QLC (Quad Level
Cell) NAND for data center SSDs (solid-state drives), which are
also expected in 2020.
Why It Matters: Massive amounts of data being generated
by machines generally require real-time analysis to make that data
valuable. This need has exposed gaps in the memory storage
hierarchy: DRAM isn’t large enough, and SSDs aren’t fast enough.
The gap is where Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory shines. And if
even bigger data sets are needed, Intel Optane technology connected
through storage interfaces fills the gap.
Additionally, hard disk drives increasingly aren’t fast enough
for data-centric computing – that’s where the combination of Intel
Optane technology plus QLC NAND comes into play. In sum, Intel
Optane is a unique combination of materials, structure and
performance that other current memory and storage technologies
cannot match.
How Customers Leverage Intel Memory and Storage: Multiple
customers are leveraging Intel memory and storage solutions,
including Microsoft, which is making significant changes to its
client operating system to support the many new capabilities and
features that Intel Optane persistent memory delivers, such as fast
boot and game loading.
Intel also demonstrated its next-generation Intel Optane
technology single-port SSD for key enterprise customers, with
product availability expected in 2020.
