The PCI Express® (or PCIe®) architecture has become the preferred interconnect standard in server and storage applications. The growing variety of performance-oriented computing demands in cloud infrastructure, edge devices, telecom networks, 5G infrastructure, embedded systems, and mobile applications also rely on PCIe.
The universal serial bus emerged in the mid-nineties and has now become a convenient and ubiquitous interconnect that streamlines the growing number and diversity of cables connecting personal computers to peripherals, like printers, scanners, and keyboards.
