AI applications have unique requirements for server infrastructure, so a new platform is required. This episode of Utilizing Tech features Mark Klarzynski of PEAK:AIO discussing their AI-specific software-defined storage platform with Jeniece Wnorowski of Solidigm and Stephen Foskett. With a background in enterprise storage, the PEAK:AIO team evaluated the needs of AI users with a goal of delivering a simple and integrated solution that could scale to support the most demanding applications. The company began working in healthcare to support distributed applications before finding similar use cases in research and manufacturing. Rather than focusing on advancing technology and then finding a use case, Mark advocates focusing on the needs and possibilities and bringing technology to solve these problems. Edge servers are constrained in terms of power, cooling, and cost, and this requires new thinking, as well as new software and hardware approaches, to continue to progress.
