The recent surge in AI workloads has sparked a memory shortage unlike anything we've seen before. With hyperscale data centers gobbling up a larger share of premium DRAM and flash, PC manufacturers and IT teams are squeezed—facing skyrocketing hardware costs, supply bottlenecks, and the challenge of keeping endpoints up to speed.
But what if you could stretch the life of your existing hardware, boosting performance and security without breaking the budget? Enter LEAF OS, a modern endpoint OS designed to breathe new life into your aging devices—making them faster, safer, and easier to manage.
The Memory Crunch That's Here to Stay
This shortage isn't a passing phase. Big shifts in where memory capacity is allocated, rising prices, and years-long delays in new fabrication mean endpoints are going to feel the pinch for the foreseeable future.
- AI and server farms take priority for memory suppliers
- Prices for DRAM and enterprise SSDs are climbing sharply
- Overall memory supply growth lags behind demand
- New production fabs will take years to mitigate shortages
These trends mean collecting dust in your IT closet are devices that could still thrive—with the right approach.
