Some deals are still in progress, others didn't happen, and those that did have yet to fully demonstrate their impact on the industry and employment.
TORONTO—Merger and acquisition activity was rampant for memory and flash makers in 2015, making it a busy year for consolidation in the industry.

Here's a run down of major shifts in the memory industry, and some false alarms, from 2015.
