At SiFive, we believe that when open source meets hardware, a whole new range of applications become possible. We invite the makers, the inventors, and the creators. Join us and discover Freedom.

UPMEM is a fabless semiconductor company dedicated to processing in-memory (PIM). UPMEM is building a PIM solution based on an innovative processor architecture to enable the computation of data intensive operations into hundreds of programmable coprocessors sitting right next to the data. Big data applications leveraging UPMEM PIM solution are modified to dispatch and orchestrate the tasks executed by the coprocessors, from the main CPU using high-level programming languages. The UPMEM team, mixing both worldwide microelectronics and system software experts, is based in Grenoble, the French center for microelectronics and semiconductors.

Pliops is creating a new category of product that enables cloud and enterprise data centers access data up to 50X faster with 1/10th the power consumption and computational load. This is done by collapsing multiple inefficient layers into one ultra-fast device based on its inventive technology. Pliops' solution solves the scalability challenges raised by data explosion and the increasing requirements of AI and ML applications.
