Challenges
As MediaZen moved into AI-powered solutions, its storage lacked the performance needed to efficiently process large, unstructured data and AI workloads. This problem was compounded when the company expanded its GPU cluster and experienced difficulties scaling its storage. As data volumes grew, the complex storage environment was increasingly difficult to manage. MediaZen needed a simpler, more performant storage solution to support its AI solution development.
Results
The Pure Storage platform became a value generator for MediaZen where new AI models are created in a fraction of the time, with a fraction of the effort. In the past, it could take up to a year to complete AI modeling tasks. With the new research environment powered by Pure Storage FlashBlade®, it takes just two weeks. The company now moves data between GPUs and storage units much more quickly and can scale GPU clusters and their storage environment seamlessly to process even larger volumes of data efficiently.
