Artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning projects are happening in every industry and research team across the globe.
According to IDC, by 2019 40 percent of digital transformation initiatives will use AI services; by 2021, 75 percent of commercial enterprise apps will use AI, over 90 percent of consumers will interact with customer support bots, and over 50 percent of new industrial robots will leverage AI.
These companies are investing in hiring data scientists and buying powerful GPU-based servers to develop these AI/ML/DL models and drive significant business value from the oceans of data.
But at the heart of the work is data and the efficiency of the AI data pipeline from data preparation to insights.
The choice of storage is critical to their success.

Data scientists need access to large, readily accessible quantities of data supported by a wide variety of data tools.
High-performance, multi-protocol shared storage for the latest AI and data tools, like TensorFlow, PyTorch and Spark, gives data teams faster access to more data with less complexity, lower costs and reliability.
To drive AI development productivity and streamline the AI data pipeline, IBM is expanding the successful release of IBM Systems AI Infrastructure Reference Architecture with the release of IBM SpectrumAI with NVIDIA DGX.

This reference architecture combines the industry acclaimed software-defined storage scale-out file system, IBM Spectrum Scale on flash with NVIDIA DGX-1.
It provides the highest performance storage in any compared system with the unique ability to support a growing data science practice.

“IBM’s strategy is to make AI/ML/DL more accessible and more performant,” says Ashish Nadkarni, Group Vice President, IDC Infrastructure Systems, Platforms and Technologies.
“IBM SpectrumAI with NVIDIA DGX is designed to provide a tested and supported platform. For those who are choosing NIVIDIA DGX servers for the open source frameworks and high-throughput GPU platforms, IBM Spectrum Scale can add intelligent, scalable, secured, metadata rich, cloud- integrated, multiprotocol, high-performing and efficient storage in an easy-to-deploy solution from their top tier business partners.”
IBM SpectrumAI provides a foundation for an AI data infrastructure on which companies can build their data science services and deliver powerful business value from their AI applications.
The proper storage can support the AI data pipeline from data preparation to training, inference and archive.
Tested, tuned and delivered exclusively through the reseller channel, IBM SpectrumAI provides the reference architecture to ramp up quickly and grow confidently.

IBM Spectrum Scale can be deployed in configurations from a single IBM Elastic Storage Server (ESS), to support for a few NVIDIA DGX-1 servers, to a rack of 9 servers with 72 Tesla V100 Tensor Core GPUs to multi-rack configurations.
Unlike traditional storage arrays, the highly parallel IBM Spectrum Scale scales practically linearly with random read data throughput requirements to feed multiple GPUs.
The result is a solution that delivers AI workload performance from shared storage comparable to the that of local RAM disk.

In a single reference architecture rack, IBM Spectrum Scale on three IBM NVMe arrays demonstrated 120GB/s of data throughput to support multiple user and multiple models simultaneously.
The NVIDIA DGX software stack is designed for maximized GPU-accelerated training performance and including the new RAPIDS framework to accelerate data science workflow.
Adoption of new AI frameworks is simplified by the container model, supported by NVIDIA’s NGC container repository of GPU-optimized applications.
“Our customers are looking to scale up their data science infrastructure to help solve the challenges of AI data deployments,” says Charlie Boyle, Senior Director of DGX Systems at NVIDIA.
“The power of the GPU-accelerated NVIDIA DGX-1, combined with IBM Spectrum Scale’s storage technology, gives data scientists a turnkey solution that brings together industry-leading compute and high-performance storage with proven results.”
