Memory Price Index

Alongside GPUs, the Ornn Data API tracks memory prices for DRAM and Flash components.

What it covers

Memory prices are spot prices for individual memory components, grouped into categories:

Category (`category`)	Examples
`dram`	`DDR5 16Gb (2Gx8) 4800/5600`, `DDR4 16Gb (2Gx8) 3200`
`flash`	`MLC 64Gb (8Gx8)`, `SLC 2Gb (256Mx8)`
`module`	`DDR5 RDIMM 32GB 4800/5600`, `DDR4 UDIMM 16GB 3200`

Fetch the full live list from /api/memory-types without an API key.

Fields

Each memory price includes:

Field	Meaning
`id`	Frozen ≤32-character partner key (for example `mem_ddr4_16gb`). Never renamed or reused.
`price`	The current spot price (session average)
`changePct`	Percent change versus the previous reading
`weeklyHigh` / `weeklyLow`	The high and low over the trailing week
`sourceUpdatedAt`	The upstream publication timestamp
`updatedAt`	When Ornn ingested the value (ISO 8601, UTC)

Update frequency

Memory prices are refreshed once per trading day (weekdays). The sourceUpdatedAt string reflects the upstream publication time; updatedAt is the UTC ingestion time you should rely on programmatically.

Each part has a frozen id (≤32 characters, for example mem_ddr4_16gb) and a vendor-style memory_type name. Prefer id as a primary key. Lookups accept either: /api/memory-index?type=mem_ddr4_16gb or the URL-encoded name. Pull the mapping from /api/memory-types.

Reading current prices

Memory price endpoints require a Premium or Full key; only the /api/memory-types catalog is public on Index. With no parameters, GET /api/memory-index returns every tracked type:

curl "https://api.ornnai.com/api/memory-index" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Narrow to one category (dram, flash, or module) to get an array, or to a single type (id or name) to get one object:

# one category
curl "https://api.ornnai.com/api/memory-index?category=dram" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

# one type by frozen id
curl "https://api.ornnai.com/api/memory-index?type=mem_ddr4_16gb" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

{
  "success": true,
  "date": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
  "count": 14,
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "mem_ddr4_16gb",
      "memoryType": "DDR4 16Gb (2Gx8) 3200",
      "category": "dram",
      "price": 40.00,
      "changePct": 0.00,
      "weeklyHigh": 50.00,
      "weeklyLow": 30.00,
      "sourceUpdatedAt": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
      "updatedAt": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"
    }
  ]
}

Pulling price history

GET /api/memory/{memoryType}/history returns a single type’s series. The path accepts the frozen id or the URL-encoded name. Bound the window with inclusive startDate and endDate (YYYY-MM-DD; a date-only endDate includes that day’s 4 PM ET settlement), or cap rows with limit (default 1000):

curl "https://api.ornnai.com/api/memory/mem_ddr4_16gb/history?limit=5" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

{
  "success": true,
  "id": "mem_ddr4_16gb",
  "memoryType": "DDR4 16Gb (2Gx8) 3200",
  "count": 5,
  "data": [
    { "date": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "id": "mem_ddr4_16gb", "memoryType": "DDR4 16Gb (2Gx8) 3200", "category": "dram", "price": 40.00, "weeklyHigh": 50.00, "weeklyLow": 30.00, "changePct": 0.00, "sourceUpdatedAt": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z", "timestamp": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z" }
  ]
}
