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

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.

By now, you probably know about the PCI-SIG Developers Conference which we hold in Santa Clara each year – a free event for our 750+ member companies with four tracks of presentations over two days.

PCI Express (PCIe^®) has been widely adopted in a number of applications that range from small, power-constrained IoT sensors and mobile devices to servers and networking and communications equipment.

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.

After successfully releasing PCIe^® 4.0 Specification Version 1.0 last October, the members of the PCI-SIG^® have been heads down and hard at work to ensure PCIe 5.0 specification is made a reality by 2019.

I’m pleased to share that PCI-SIG has released the PCIe 4.0 Specification Version 1.0 and it is now available for download on our website.
