Accelerating and Protecting Storage for AI with GRAID Technology

Modern AI servers are loaded with GPUs, but spend too much time waiting for data. This episode of Utilizing Tech, focused on AI at the Edge with ⁠Solidigm⁠, features ⁠Kelley Osburn⁠ of ⁠Graid Technology⁠ discussing the latest in data protection and acceleration with ⁠⁠⁠Scott Shadley⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠Stephen Foskett⁠. As more businesses invest in GPUs to train and deploy AI models, they are discovering how difficult it is to keep these expensive compute clusters fed. GPUs are idled when data retrieval is too slow, and failures or errors could prove catastrophic. ⁠Graid⁠ not only protects data but also accelerates access, allowing users to achieve the full potential of their AI server investment.

Recalling the shifting surrealism of filmmaker David Lynch, the paired works of “Diptych (The missing door and The lost room)” bring together a collection of odd and archetypal individuals and subjects them to a corkscrew journey of extraordinary proportions.
