Context Before
CMX is NVIDIA’s context memory storage platform. CMX addresses a growing bottleneck in modern inference infrastructure: the rapid expansion of KV Cache required to support long-context and agentic workloads.
KV cache grows linearly with input sequence length and number of users and is the primary tradeoff when it comes to prefill performance (time to first token). At scale, on-device HBM does not have enough capacity. Host DRAM extends beyond HBM capacity with an additional tier of cache, but also hits limits on total amount per node, memory bandwidth, and network bandwidth. Enter NVMe storage for additional KVcache offload.
Evidence
NVIDIA introduced a “new” intermediate storage “tier G3.5” within the inference memory hierarchy at CES in January. Tier G3.5 NVMe sits in between tier G3 DRAM and tier G4 shared storage (also NVMe, or SATA/SAS SSD, or HDD). Previously referred to as ICMS (Inference Context Memory Storage) and now branded as the CMX platform, this is just another re-brand of storage servers attached to compute servers via Bluefield NICs. The only difference from NVMe architectures is the swap from Connect-X NICs to Bluefield NICs.

⑤ V2 Draft(需要修正時直接編輯)
Inline repair
只編輯以下三個 Draft 區塊。完成後將
review_action設為REQUEST_REPAIR,再手動執行 Repair Preview。
執行腳本前,Draft 不會寫入 Claim Store 或 Graph。

}⑥ Human Review
請在 Properties 逐項確認:
- 原文 → Atomic Claim 是否忠實
- Atomic Claim → Semantic Frame 是否忠實
- Canonical Entity mapping 是否正確
- Epistemic mode 是否保留原文語氣
- 最後選擇
