AI Infrastructure Field Day 5 takes place June 10-11 and brings together industry experts, technology vendors, and independent delegates to explore the latest developments in AI infrastructure. The two-day event features presentations from SNIA, Scality, CTERA, Commvault, Solidigm, and MinIO, cov...

Think your expensive GPUs are the biggest factor in AI performance? Think again. Without a high-performance data storage strategy to keep them supplied with data, your AI infrastructure can become an expensive machine sitting idle. In this episode of the Tech Field Day Podcast, host Alastair Cook...

This roundtable discussion at AI Infrastructure Field Day 5 brings together the delegate panel to reflect on the event's presentations and discussions. Alastair Cooke opened by noting a significant shift in focus from AI training infrastructure to AI inference infrastructure, emphasizing that inf...

This presentation detailed Solidigm's collaboration with Metrum to explore how storage, specifically Solidigm's SSDs, can effectively function as AI memory for Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and Key-Value (KV) cache operations. Metrum's core challenge involved ingesting vast amounts of vide...

This presentation introduces MinIO MemKV, a critical new memory layer designed to address the challenges of scaling AI inference workloads, particularly for agentic applications. The core problem stems from the increasing size of context memory, known as the KV cache, which frequently exceeds the...

AI infrastructure introduces a new class of risk: interdependent data, models, identities, and pipelines can fail out of sync, leaving systems operational but no longer trustworthy. At the same time, a growing CIO/CISO disconnect is creating unclear ownership and slowing response when trust is lo...

Storage Density for AI Without Compromise with Solidigm. Allyn Malventano, AI/SSD Technologist at Solidigm, introduced his role in AI workload categorization and SSD optimization, then outlined the presentation, which would cover an overview of storage applications for AI, a cluster-scale exercis...

In this comprehensive technical session, SNIA Board Chair J Metz, Ph.D., presents how the StorageAI Community is tackling the fundamental data-movement, benchmarking, physical design, and sustainability challenges unique to AI data requirements. From SDXI zero-copy semantics and Accelerator-Initi...

AI is moving beyond training, and inference is now the biggest challenge enterprises must solve. In this episode of Tech Field Day Takeaways, Alastair Cooke shares his biggest lessons from AI Infrastructure Field Day 5, explaining why storage has become central to AI performance, why GPU efficien...

Are multi-terabyte GPUs and massive frontier models really the answer to enterprise AI, or are we hitting a hard wall of soaring memory costs and power constraints? In this episode of the Tech Field Day Podcast, host Alastair Cooke sits down with technical experts Ron Pagani Jr., Andy Banta, and ...
