Release the Value of Data

The data-driven era is dramatically reshaping the future. With AI, from genomics, financial services to electric vehicles, computer systems use mathematics and logic to simulate the reasons people use to learn new information and make decisions. HPC and AI are technologies designed to unlock the value of data. While they have long been seen as separate technologies, they are converging as the industry realizes that AI requires the powerful, scalable computing, networking, and storage that HPC provides.

XCubeFAS series

The goal for AI in SMB is to achieve the maximum speed with the lowest cost. The XCubeFAS series is no doubt the ideal storage solution. Coupled with the commonly used protocols such as 25 GbE / 10 GbE iSCSI or 32 Gb / 16 Gb Fibre Channel to directly connect multiple servers, it will further reduce the cost without deployment of costly and complicated networking equipment. Open source parallel file systems such as BeeGFS also contribute a lot for SMB to easily adopt AI.
