Integration and disaggregation of various parts of computer architecture is a constant cycle that depends on what’s the current bottleneck. For decades computers are connection of compute, memory, storage and network, and you can trade them based on what’s needed. If transferring data is bottleneck, then companies start to integrate. But that has downside of not being able to grow resources at different speed, so once transferring data is no longer a bottleneck, everyone runs to disaggregate. And then it repeats. A lot of current ideas were actually used in the past, but cycle phased them out, and they make a comeback right now.
