1. A system, comprising:
a processor coupled to a first connection;
a memory module coupled to a second connection; and
an interposer coupled to the first connection and the second connection, the interposer including an optional interconnect module, socket pins, and a memory controller circuit, wherein the memory controller circuit receives signals from the processor, using the first connection, and transmits the received signals to the memory module, using the second connection, wherein the optional interconnect module protrudes from a top surface of the interposer and provides a copper-based high speed pluggable interface on the top surface of the interposer for plugging in a routing cable, and wherein the socket pins are located on a bottom surface of the interposer; and
a first motherboard including two processor sockets, wherein the processor is connected to a first one of the two processor sockets, and the interposer is connected to a second one of the two processor sockets; and
a second motherboard including another two processor sockets, wherein the interposer is connected to a second interposer using the cable, the second interposer installed on one of the another two processor sockets on the second motherboard using the cable.
