Future of Memory and Storage - Day 1 @ 09:20

Securing PCIe & CXL based Composable Memory & Storage Fabrics

Composable fabric infrastructure for AI and cloud disaggregates compute, GPU, memory, and networking into modular, software-defined resource pools. Protocols such as PCIe and CXL eliminate hardware limits, enables memory pooling & sharing, improves GPU utilization, and enables independent scaling of resources while allowing dynamic, real-time allocation tailored to specific AI workloads. This talk presents a security blueprint for fabric-connected memory and storage, focusing on three questions: (1) what must be protected on the link vs. at endpoints, (2) how to manage identities/keys and establish secure sessions across heterogeneous devices, and (3) how to operationalize security enforcement without breaking performance and RAS targets.
