Researchers at the UC San Diego Center for Microbiome Innovation (CMI), have expanded their Panasas high-performance computing (HPC) storage infrastructure with an additional two petabytes (PB) of ActiveStor data storage to support the growing number of I/O-intensive tasks related to COVID-19 research
Advances in storage technology enable scientists to accelerate their research
NetApp has started using a data science platform from Iguazio for real-time machine learning applications
Cray, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, has unveiled its Cray ClusterStor E1000 system, an entirely new parallel storage platform for massively scalable workloads such as AI, analytics, simulation and modelling
With the growth in AI and ML, there is an increasing requirement for an organisation to store and manage large volumes of data. Ceph can support an organisations requirements for AI and ML by providing a rapidly and horizontally scalable system that can support object, block and file storage to manage the growth of their data. Organisations with inferencing workloads for AI and ML are increasingly reliant on tier-2 storage as the demand for this technology increases.
