On January 22, 2019, the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency issued an emergency directive to mitigate DNS infrastructure tampering intended to disrupt and redirect government and business communications.

PCI-SIG^® is proud to announce that we have established a working relationship with DMTF to simplify hardware management.

PCI-SIG has built its reputation on delivering high quality PCI Express^® (PCIe) specifications that have doubled bandwidth on average every three years, while maintaining full backwards compatibility with prior generations.

At PCI-SIG, we take pride in ensuring that our specifications operate without a hitch. However, sometimes PCI Express developers need to submit Engineering Change Requests (ECRs) to update parts of the specification so that PCIe integrated products can reach their optimal functionality.

I’m happy to share that 2018 has been another productive year for PCI-SIG. In addition to significant progress in our specification development and compliance work, we also continued to provide educational resources to our members and the industry.

The PCI-SIG Serial Enabling Workgroup (called the “SEG” for short) is the PCI-SIG workgroup charged with running the PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) compliance program.

PCI Express^® – also known as PCIe – used to get a bad rap for being power hungry on servers and PCs. But I’m happy to say that this is no longer the case. Are you aware that PCIe today is extremely power efficient with built-in low power features?

I’m looking forward to attending the Flash Memory Summit (FMS) next week in Santa Clara.

I recently attended the OCP Summit for the first time and I was impressed by the size of this growing event. The San Jose Convention Center was packed with industry experts – all eager to discuss how to move the Open Compute Project (OPC) forward.
