VAST Data allies with Nvidia on reference storage architecture for AI
VAST Data and Nvidia today unveiled a reference architecture that promises to accelerate storage performance when servers based on graphical processor units (GPUs) access petabytes of data.
The reference architecture is intended to make it simpler to integrate all Flash storage system dubbed Lightspeed with DGX A100 servers from Nvidia. That effort should yield more than 170GB/s of throughput for both GPU-intensive and storage-intensive AI workloads, the companies claim.
