While AI is foundational to the next wave of digital transformation, traditional data and storage infrastructure -even many parallel file systems- isn’t prepared for the demands required to support today’s AI lifecycle, which places unprecedented demands on storage and data infrastructure.
Developing an effective data infrastructure for AI requires a holistic approach, considering data, database, processing, and storage as a unified entity. This is how VAST Data approaches the challenge.
Oracle announced the general availability of the Oracle Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure, offering extreme performance, reliability, availability, and security for Oracle Database workloads. This new infrastructure is now available on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), catering to any workload size for all Oracle Database customers.
Traditional storage solutions, whether on-premises or in the cloud, often fail to meet the varying needs of each phase of the AI lifecycle. These legacy approaches are particularly ill-suited for the demands of distributed training, where keeping an expensive AI training cluster idle has a real economic impact on the enterprise.
Oracle HeatWave GenAI is now generally available. The release features the industry’s first in-database large language models (LLMs), automated vector store, scale-out vector processing, and natural language conversations informed by unstructured content.
