WEKA Data Platform

Parallel file system software tuned to keep GPUs fed.

Why this part

Software rather than an appliance, designed around the specific failure mode of GPU training: thousands of tiny random reads that a filesystem tuned for large sequential HPC writes handles badly. A GPU that is waiting for data is the most expensive idle asset in a data centre, and the entire commercial case for this category is that storage is now worth optimising because the thing it feeds costs so much.

“Units recorded” sums only the edges where a public source states a quantity. It is a floor, not a total, and should never be read as installed base.
