Jeff Denworth, CMO, introduces VAST Data LightSpeed, a storage platform for next-generation AI applications. The LightSpeed platform is designed to enable any platform to gain maximum performance via a single NFS mount point. NFS over RDMA can exceed multiple gigabyte per second performance using nconnect multipath. Denworth then discusses the need for high-speed NFS storage for AI applications and presents benchmarks for Nvidia DGX-A100 with VAST Data LightSpeed. He also presents a use case of AI imaging using LightSpeed. This session was sponsored by Intel.
