Industry's first monolithic 8Gb DDR3 SDRAM

The availability of 8Gb-based solutions, such as the mainstream 32GB RDIMM, will enable long-term, economical, richly configured systems across the data centre. Applications based on enterprise in-memory data analytics, search and social networking will benefit from this SDRAM.

Robert Feurle, Vice President, Compute and Networking Marketing, Micron, commented: "The ability to scale with our customers' accelerating memory demand was a key driver in developing this 8Gb DDR3 design. We are committed to working together with our partners to minimise risk, maximise flexibility and optimise total cost of ownership."

"AMD is excited to leverage Micron's DDR3 8Gb solution. The SeaMicro SM15000 server is deployed in some of the most demanding data centre environments, and this product allows us to expand the memory footprint to meet the performance needs of hyperscale data centres requiring efficient, high performance server systems," added Dhiraj Mallick, Corporate Vice President, Data Center Server Solutions, AMD.
