AI & Tech Rumor First seen

Alibaba, Tencent, ByteDance seek 10-year server DRAM deals with Samsung, SK Hynix

Alibaba, Tencent and ByteDance have asked Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix for long-term server DRAM supply agreements, with some sounding out ultra-long 10-year contracts running through 2035, according to a report cited in the post. The requested products are server DDR and low-power LPDDR, driven by a memory shortage as AI data center buildouts accelerate. The post states China has more than 24GW of AI data center capacity, second only to the United States, and that domestic suppliers such as CXMT still lag South Korean vendors in server DRAM competitiveness.
