Title:
Insights Gained from Next-generation Storage Solutions in AI Computing
The explosive growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) demands a fundamental shift in data architecture. To fully realize the potential of high-performance AI computing, modern infrastructure requires more than just raw computational power. This keynote addresses the critical storage bottlenecks faced in AI computing environments and shares key insights gained from overcoming these challenges. We will explore the architecture of ultra-fast data pipelines designed to eliminate I/O waiting times, strategies for building cost-effective yet scalable data lakes, and methods for ensuring predictable scalability. Finally, the session will provide a forward-looking roadmap on how hardware and software must converge to power the next generation of AI enterprises.
Keynote speeches will be conducted in hybrid mode. Authors and participants may join the keynote sessions online at any time through the participant access link provided by the conference.
