Accelerating and Scaling Big Data Analytics with Alluxio and Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory

International Data Corporation (IDC) reported that the global datasphere will grow from 33 zettabytes in 2018 to 175 zettabytes by 2025. This trend becomes more and more complicated with the variety and velocity of data growth, and it continuously changes the ways how data is collected, stored, processed and analyzed. New analytics solutions from machine … Continued

Speeding Big Data Analytics on the Cloud with In-Memory Data Accelerator

Discontinuity in big data infrastructure drives storage disaggregation, especially in companies experiencing dramatic data growth after pivoting to AI and analytics. This data growth challenge makes disaggregating storage from compute attractive because the company can scale their storage capacity to match their data growth, independent of compute. This decoupled mode allows the separation of compute and storage, enabling users to rightsize hardware for each layer. Users can buy high-end CPU and memory configurations for the compute nodes, and storage nodes can be optimized for capacity.
