Everspin Debuts First CXL-Connected MRAM at SNIA 2026 — Everspin Technologies, Inc.

Event summary

Everspin demonstrated the world’s first CXL-connected MRAM platform at SNIA Developer Conference 2026.
The system combines CXL’s high-speed connectivity with MRAM’s persistent memory capabilities.
The demo used a Supermicro server with AMD EPYC 9355 processor and Wolley CXL controller.
MRAM offers nanosecond-class access and writes up to 100x faster than NAND-based storage.
The configuration enables pooled and shared persistent memory across hosts.

The big picture

Everspin’s demonstration highlights the growing demand for persistent memory solutions in AI-driven data centers. The integration of CXL with MRAM addresses the need for faster, more reliable data access, potentially reshaping memory architectures in high-performance computing environments. The collaboration with Supermicro, AMD, and Wolley underscores the industry’s push toward open standards-based memory connectivity.
