With no near-term end in sight for rising prices and extended lead times
in a variety of DDR memory form factors, customers who do not
proactively build backlog for these devices could find themselves facing
the dreaded “A-word” – allocation - according to the latest Market &
Technology Trends report now available from Avnet
Electronics Marketing, an operating group of Avnet,
Inc. (NYSE: AVT).
In a video released today, Alex Iuorio, senior vice president, supplier
marketing for Avnet Electronics Marketing Americas, presents highlights
of the most recent Market and Technology Trends Report, including
commentary on memory market sourcing challenges as well information on
exciting new product introductions supporting high-performance,

“The continued proliferation of big data in the enterprise world has put
tremendous pressure on the memory market, but technology advances such
as the 8Gb DDR3 monolithic devices and both 4Gb and 8Gb DDR4 will give
buyers more options,” said Iuorio. “Another hot technology to watch will
be BLE beacons, applications of which are quickly expanding from the
consumer world into the commercial, medical, connected home and personal
asset tracking markets.”

times, pricing trends, allocations, new product releases and end-of-life
