While the industry is just now adopting CXL CPUs, IntelliProp's Omega Platform is already providing the Fabric Orchestration required to scale them. The world's first fully disaggregated, dynamically composable memory fabric — delivering ~47 ns overhead and up to 256 GB/s per port in production silicon.
Any processor can access any memory pool, dynamically, without software overhead. IntelliProp was first to market with composable CXL memory fabric — integrating into existing rack architectures without hardware redesign.
Gen-Z is a high-performance, low-latency, memory-semantic fabric enabling communication between every device in a system. It simplifies every interface while providing the building blocks for solutions where every device — compute, memory, and storage — is a peer communicating in the same memory-semantic language.
Gen-Z differs fundamentally from PCIe: it allows multiple Root-Complex equivalents called requesters within a given fabric subnet. Every component has equal access to the memory fabric — compute, GPU, accelerator, or storage — without the asymmetric Root Complex / Endpoint constraint of PCIe.
Gen-Z breaks the processor-to-memory linkage. Once memory is disaggregated from the processor, it scales independently — different types of media (volatile and non-volatile) can co-exist behind a transparent media controller, scaled exactly as required by the workload.
IntelliProp's dual-boot architecture enables new CPU/SoC designs to support both PCIe Root Complex and Gen-Z Requester/Responder protocol stacks, sharing the same gigabit transceivers. System firmware configures the IO interface as a mixed PCIe/Gen-Z complex, dual PCIe, or dual Gen-Z — giving SoC designers full flexibility while maintaining legacy PCIe compatibility.
IntelliProp's Gen-Z Switch IP enables multi-port switching across the Gen-Z fabric, allowing multiple processors and SoCs to share and provision memory resources securely and with low latency. The switch integrates Gen-Z Requester and Responder blocks with a PCIe endpoint for bridging from legacy hosts without native Gen-Z interfaces. Implementable in both FPGA and ASIC designs.
The IntelliProp Gen-Z Media Controller ("Mamba") enables mixed DRAM/NAND memory modules to participate as equal members on the Gen-Z bus. Multiple processors, GPUs, and other devices can share and provision these resources directly. The media controller offloads certain media operations — accelerating them without requiring data to traverse into the processor cache, improving both latency and application performance.
