CCIX Consortium Triples Number of Member Companies and Announces Availability of Specification New members range from silicon providers to rich ecosystem of partners including design, verification, software, and system vendors Oct 11, 2016
SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The CCIX consortium today announced that it has tripled its membership and has released the specification to consortium members. Founding members, AMD, ARM, Huawei, IBM, Mellanox Technologies, Qualcomm Technologies Inc., and Xilinx, Inc., welcome new members representing silicon providers and ecosystem partners in design, verification, software, and systems:
Amphenol Corp.
Arteris Inc.
Avery Design Systems
Atos
Cadence Design Systems, Inc.
Cavium, Inc.
Integrated Device Technology, Inc.
Keysight Technologies, Inc.
Micron Technology, Inc.
NetSpeed Systems

CCIX allows processors based on different instruction set architectures to extend their cache coherency to accelerators, interconnect, and I/O. These highly capable accelerators become a key component in the processor system. The availability of the CCIX technology gives system designers the flexibility to choose the right combination of heterogeneous components from multiple vendors and address their specific system needs.
Through close collaboration, the member companies have aligned to a CCIX specification release that addresses the need for datacenter connectivity by utilizing the prevalent ecosystem that exists today and enhancing it to enable higher bandwidth, lower latency, and full coherency. In addition, the CCIX consortium has chosen to use the PCI Express architecture as its first transport layer with additional higher speeds of 25Gbps and beyond. CCIX anticipates additional transport layers to be added in the future. Using the PCI Express standard to transport the CCIX coherency protocol eases the implementation of CCIX in processors and accelerators. It also eases the deployment of CCIX technology in servers by leveraging the existing hardware and software infrastructure.
Availability
The CCIX specification is available immediately to the consortium members. Initial products based on CCIX technology are expected in 2017.
About CCIX Consortium
The CCIX consortium includes a broad representation of industry leaders, working together to develop a single interconnect technology specification that will ensure that processors using different instruction set architectures (ISA) can coherently share data with accelerators and enable efficient heterogeneous computing significantly improving compute efficiency for servers running data center workloads and embedded applications like 5G wireless and mobile edge computing. Member companies include: AMD (NASDAQ:AMD), Amphenol Corp., ARM, Arteris Inc., Avery Design Systems, Atos, Cadence Design Systems, Inc., Cavium, Inc. (NASDAQ:CAVM), Huawei, Integrated Device Technology, Inc., IBM (NYSE:IBM), Keysight Technologies, Inc., Mellanox Technologies (NASDAQ:MLNX), Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU), NetSpeed Systems, Qualcomm Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:QCOM), Red Hat Inc., Synopsys, Inc., Teledyne LeCroy, Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:TXN), TSMC, and Xilinx (NASDAQ:XLNX).
