Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment and Other Information
Segment and Other Information

Segment information reported herein is consistent with how it is reviewed and evaluated by our chief operating decision maker. We have the following four business units, which are our reportable segments:

Compute and Networking Business Unit (“CNBU”): Includes memory products and solutions sold into the data center, PC, graphics, and networking markets.
Mobile Business Unit (“MBU”): Includes memory and storage products sold into the smartphone and other mobile-device markets.
Embedded Business Unit (“EBU”): Includes memory and storage products and solutions sold into the intelligent edge through the automotive, industrial, and consumer embedded markets.
Storage Business Unit (“SBU”): Includes SSDs and component-level storage solutions sold into the data center, PC, and consumer markets.

Certain operating expenses directly associated with the activities of a specific segment are charged to that segment. Other indirect operating income and expenses are generally allocated to segments based on their respective percentage of cost of goods sold or forecasted wafer production. We do not identify or report internally our assets (other than goodwill) or capital expenditures by segment, nor do we allocate gains and losses from equity method investments, interest, other non-operating income or expense items, or taxes to segments. As of August 29, 2024 and August 31, 2023, CNBU, MBU, and EBU had goodwill of $855 million, $198 million, and $97 million, respectively.
