Storage news round-up – May 29
Alluxio, supplier of open source virtual distributed file systems, announced Alluxio Enterprise AI 3.6. This delivers capabilities for model distribution, model training checkpoint writing optimization, and enhanced multi-tenancy support. It can, we’re told, accelerate AI model deployment cycles, reduce training time, and ensure data access across cloud environments. The new release uses Alluxio Distributed Cache to accelerate model distribution workloads; by placing the cache in each region, model files need only be copied from the Model Repository to the Alluxio Distributed Cache once per region rather than once per server.
