Alluxio's strong Q2 featured Enterprise AI 3.7 launch with sub-millisecond latency (45× faster than S3 Standard), 50%+ customer growth including Salesforce and Geely, and MLPerf Storage v2.0 results showing 99%+ GPU utilization, positioning the company as a leader in maximizing AI infrastructure ROI.
In this blog, Greg Lindstrom, Vice President of ML Trading at Blackout Power Trading, an electricity trading firm in North American power markets, shares how they leverage Alluxio to power their offline feature store. This approach delivers multi-join query performance in the double-digit millisecond range, while maintaining the cost and durability benefits of Amazon S3 for persistent storage. As a result, they achieved a 22 to 37x reduction in large-join query latency for training and a 37 to 83x reduction in large-join query latency for inference.

In this article, Honghan Tian describes how engineers in the Data Service Center (DSC) at Tencent PCG (Platform and Content Business Group) leverages Alluxio to optimize the analytics performance and minimize the operating costs in building Tencent Beacon Growing, a real-time data analytics platform.
This article presents the collaboration of Alibaba, Alluxio, and Nanjing University in tackling the problem of Deep Learning model training in the cloud. Various performance bottlenecks are analyzed with detailed optimizations of each component in the architecture. Our goal was to reduce the cost and complexity of data access for Deep Learning training in a hybrid environment, which resulted in over 40% reduction in training time and cost.
This article describes how Alluxio can accelerate the training of deep learning models in a hybrid cloud environment when using Intel’s Analytics Zoo open source platform, powered by oneAPI. Details on the new architecture and workflow, as well as Alluxio’s performance benefits and benchmarks results will be discussed.
