The semiconductor industry is witnessing a revolutionary turn with the advent of DRAM+, an innovative memory technology poised to transform artificial intelligence (AI) computing and potentially rekindle Europe’s chip manufacturing sector. Developed collaboratively by Ferroelectric Memory Co. (FMC) and Neumonda, DRAM+ leverages hafnium oxide (HfO₂) to introduce non-volatile memory, a departure from conventional DRAM reliant on capacitors. Unlike traditional DRAM,

The development of Kioxia’s next-generation optical PCIe 5.0 SSDs represents a major leap in data storage technology, characterized by its ability to operate up to 40 meters from the host system without any performance degradation. By replacing traditional copper connections with optical communication, Kioxia ensures consistent high throughput over these long distances. This innovation has achieved and maintained full multi-gigabyte-per-second

The decision by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to replace 14,000 magnetic storage tapes of the U.S. General Services Administration (USGSA) with new digital formats has stirred a debate among experts and industry observers. Aimed at saving approximately $1 million annually, this move has faced criticism from advocates of magnetic tape storage, who argue that this technology remains indispensable
