AI adoption: How DDN optimizes HPC for GPU efficiency [Video]

High-performance computing serves as the essential backbone for artificial intelligence, enabling complex model training and significantly accelerating AI adoption.

Recognizing the critical synergy between HPC and AI for efficiently scaling and deploying applications, DataDirect Networks Inc. leverages its expertise in high-performance computing to drive innovation, according to Jyothi Swaroop (pictured), chief marketing officer of DDN.

“Our roots are obviously in high-performance computing, which is in the data center,” he said. “With AI, there’s not enough power in the world to power all the AI that the world requires. What we do at DDN is we try to get your GPUs to perform 10X more efficiently. That means they consume a lot less power. For example, at xAI, which is the largest AI super factory in the world, we’ve been able to build 100,000 GPUs and growing to 200,000 in short order. We’ve been able to help them accelerate their AI outcomes within that data center.”
