Abstract
Artificial intelligence relies on data-driven analysis, and the data processing performance strongly depends on factors such as memory capacity, bandwidth, and latency. Fast and large-capacity memory can be achieved by composing numerous high-performance memory units connected via high-performance interconnects, such as Compute Express Link (CXL). CXL is designed to enable efficient communication between central processing units, memory, accelerators, storage, and other computing resources. By adopting CXL, a composable computing architecture can be implemented, enabling flexible server resource configuration using a pool of computing resources. Thus, manufacturers are actively developing hardware and software solutions to support CXL. We present a survey of the latest software for CXL memory utilization and the most recent CXL memory emulation software. The former supports efficient use of CXL memory, and the latter offers a development environment that allows developers to optimize their software for the hardware architecture before commercial release of CXL memory devices. Furthermore, we review key technologies for improving the performance of both the CXL memory pool and CXL-based composable computing architecture along with various use cases.
