We are thrilled to announce the general availability of Alluxio Enterprise for Data Analytics 3.2! With data volumes continuing to grow at exponential rates, data platform teams face challenges in maintaining query performance, managing infrastructure costs, and ensuring scalability. This latest version of Alluxio addresses these challenges head-on with groundbreaking improvements in scalability, performance, and cost-efficiency.
We’re excited to introduce Rapid Alluxio Deployer (RAD) on AWS, which allows you to experience the performance benefits of Alluxio in less than 30 minutes. RAD is designed with a split-plane architecture, which ensures that your data remains secure within your AWS environment, giving you peace of mind while leveraging Alluxio’s capabilities.
PyTorch is one of the most popular deep learning frameworks in production today. As models become increasingly complex and dataset sizes grow, optimizing model training performance becomes crucial to reduce training times and improve productivity.
Alluxio, the data platform company for all data-driven workloads, hosted the community event “AI Infra Day” on October 25, 2023. This virtual event brought together technology leaders working on AI infrastructure from Uber, Meta, and Intel, to delve into the intricate aspects of building scalable, performant, and cost-effective AI platforms.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has consistently been in the limelight as the precursor of the next technological era. Its limitless applications, ranging from simple chatbots to intricate neural networks capable of deep learning, promise a future where machines understand and replicate complex human processes. Yet, at the heart of this technological marvel is something foundational yet often overlooked: data.

Unless you’ve been living off the grid, the hype around Generative AI has been impossible to ignore. A critical component fueling this AI revolution is the underlying computing power, GPUs. The lightning-fast GPUs enable speedy model training. But a hidden bottleneck can severely limit their potential – I/O. If data can’t make its way to the GPU fast enough to keep up with its computations, those precious GPU cycles end up wasted waiting around for something to do. This is why we need to bring more awareness to the challenges of I/O bottlenecks.
