Rambus Partners With IBM for Development of Hybrid Memory
Read MoreHide Full Article
Rambus Inc. (RMBS - Free Report) recently announced that it is developing hybrid memory systems in collaboration with International Business Machines (IBM - Free Report) , primarily for use in future data centers.
The partnership is aimed at optimizing the capabilities of DRAM and other emerging memory systems that will address the increasing need for storage, given the exponential rise in data generation and related artificial intelligence (AI) applications.
Rambus is developing a prototype of the high capacity memory subsystem using IBM's POWER9 processor and OpenCAPI interface. Per the press release, Rambus became part of the “OpenCAPI Consortium, an open development community based on Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface technology, and OpenPOWER Foundation, an open development community based on the IBM Power Architecture.”
This flexible memory system will blend DRAM and other technologies namely, “Flash, enhanced Flash, Phase Change Memory (PCM), Resistive RAM (ReRAM) and Spin Torque Transfer Magnetic RAM (STT-MRAM).” This in turn will create memory with high capacity at a lower per bit cost. These high capacity and high density memories are anticipated to utilize the CPU to its full potential.
Rambus has been undertaking several initiatives for the efficient operation of data centers. The company delivers high-speed interfaces and related chips that increase the capability of cloud.
In October 2017, the company announced a host of “silicon-proven PHYs on 14nm LPP process technology.” The company also announced the interoperability of “Rambus DDR4 3200 PHY and Arm CoreLink Dynamic Memory Controller” meant for datacenters.
Per MarketsandMarkets, the data center solutions market is projected to touch $32.3 billion in 2020 from $18.56 billion in 2015 at a CAGR of 11.7%. We believe that Rambus, on account of its continuous efforts to enhance its data center related solutions, is well poised to benefit from this growth.
Long-term expected EPS growth rate for Paycom and Vmware is projected to be 25.8%, and 12.3%, respectively.
Today's Stocks from Zacks' Hottest Strategies
It's hard to believe, even for us at Zacks. But while the market gained +18.8% from 2016 - Q1 2017, our top stock-picking screens have returned +157.0%, +128.0%, +97.8%, +94.7%, and +90.2% respectively.
And this outperformance has not just been a recent phenomenon. Over the years it has been remarkably consistent. From 2000 - Q1 2017, the composite yearly average gain for these strategies has beaten the market more than 11X over. Maybe even more remarkable is the fact that we're willing to share their latest stocks with you without cost or obligation.
