Pure Storage has announced an important update on its Flashblade platform, integrating the reference design of the NVIDIA IA data platform. This movement reinforces its commitment to offer scalable and prepared solutions for artificial intelligence (AI) of business level, complying with strict NVIDIA standards.
«The GPUs have quickly become the engine that drives the new wave of innovation in AI. The incorporation of the NVIDIA AI data platform in Flashblade offers storage prepared for the AI needed for maximum performance. With our specially designed storage solutions, business clients can take advantage of AI to accelerate its success in an easy and efficient way, ”says Rob Lee, Chief Technology Officer, Pure Storage.
Nvidia in Flashblade
The company is revolutionizing the storage and management of business data, improving the capacity of its customers to handle the requirements of high performance and accelerated computing data necessary to successfully implement AI. Among the improvements stand out:
- Advanced capabilities with flashblade. The integration of the NVIDIA reference design in Pureage Flashblade allows customers to bring storage to a new level in the AI era. Flashblade is a high -performance distributed system that provides business information based on data. Taking advantage of NVIDIA elements such as accelerated computing, networking and Nvidia AI Enterprise, Flashblade processes data with the necessary speed and agility for AI applications.
- High performance certification. Pure Storage has obtained certification as a high performance storage platform (HPS) for Nvidia network cloud partners. This certification, which includes HGX NVIDIA systems with GPUS NVIDIA B200 or H200, reinforces the collaboration between Pureage and Nvidia. He recognizes Pure Storage as a confidence storage partner, validating their ability to support Nvidia Cloud Partners with a proven reference architecture that meets all technical and performance requirements for the construction of last generation GPU clouds.
Flashblade is now certified for Nvidia Cloud Partner and Enterprise implementations,
- NVIDIA certified storage partner. Pure Storage has also been recognized as NVIDIA certified storage partner at the Foundation and Enterprise levels. This program rigorously proves storage systems to ensure that they meet the highest standards of quality, efficiency and reliability. Complements NVIDIA certified systems and business reference architectures of NVIDIA, allowing partners and customers to implement AI infrastructure efficiently.
- Impact for customers. The rise of large -scale AI and ML workloads has accelerated the growth of GPU Cloud suppliers, which are expanding their infrastructure to meet the growing business demand for accelerated computing. Business projects depend on high performance storage systems capable of following the rhythm and process scale such as models, inference and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) workflows. Traditional storage solutions usually limit the efficiency of GPUS, generating bottlenecks in access to data and directly affecting the time of obtaining results. In addition, these inherited architectures introduce complexities in large -scale storage management and have difficulties in multi -user environments, increasing operational inefficiency and risk of safety gaps.
