Micron and AgigA Collaborate to Develop Nonvolatile DIMM Technology

Micron Technology and AgigA Technology have jointly announced that they will collaborate on developing Nonvolatile DIMM (NVDIMM) storage technology for high performance computing and storage platforms.

By combining the low-latency and endurance of DRAM and the nonvolatile nature of flash memory, NVDIMM enable fast, persistent main memory for high-performance computing applications. NVDIMM technology provides performance, cost and data security advantages for a wide range of applications, including server RAIDs, storage tiering, data logging, de-duplication, system checkpointing and metadata processing.

The collaboration will leverage on the strengths of the two companies - Micron's expertise in memory IC and memory development and manufacturing and AgigA's power modules and ultracapacitors.
