Analysts and press spend a lot of time talking about specs and performance numbers, so it’s always a treat when we get to talk to people who are testing and using these products. This episode of Utilizing Tech is focused on AI Data Infrastructure and features Jordan Ranous from StorageReview and is co-hosted by Stephen Foskett and Ace Stryker from our sponsor, Solidigm. StorageReview has constricted an experimental environment focused on astrophotography as a way to demonstrate AI applications in challenging edge environments. Their setup included a ruggedized Dell server, NVIDIA GPU, and Solidigm SSDs. This is the same sort of setup found at edge compute environments in retail, manufacturing, and remote use cases. StorageReview benchmarks storage devices by profiling real-world applications and building representative infrastructure to test. When it comes to GPUs, the goal is to keep these expensive processors operating at maximum capacity through optimal network and storage throughput.
