The WEKA Innovation Network

Groupware AI Labs has tested and validated the Weka AI reference architecture. The Weka AI framework provides us and other ISV technology partners the flexibility and technology innovation to seamlessly run and scale AI workloads to tackle industry challenges both on-prem and in public clouds.

There is a need for a software-centric, data storage platform that delivers both flexibility in deployment models and outstanding performance at scale. With the WekaFS in our toolkit, we can offer a highly differentiated data platform strategy that can accelerate application performance for enterprises and organizations with HPC, AI/ML, and Technical Computing workloads. Being in the WekaIO Innovation Network partner program affords us the ability to bring to bear a differentiated building block in the exploding HPC, AI, and machine learning markets.

As an independent data services integrator, Nephos looked at the market to find the best fit for Genomics England’s requirements and Weka stood out head and shoulders above the rest for delivering a modern file system to better assist life sciences organizations.

Our customers, with high I/O requirements, like Aiden Lab at Baylor College of Medicine, are looking for alternatives to GPFS to improve application performance, while at the same time run the workflow effectively in the cloud, and WekaFS offers this winning combination.

WekaFS was purpose-built for high-performance technical computing and data-intensive applications.  Our clients across industries see immediate business value in how WekaFS can get a them to the next level in gleaning value from their data.

Datacenters are evolving, incorporating accelerated computing technologies and cloud strategies to support new workloads such as AI or machine learning. WekaFS is cloud-optimized and architected to provide high bandwidth I/O to GPU-enabled compute clusters playing a big role in enabling digital transformation.

The Weka parallel file system was architected from the ground up to empower the modern datacenter, with flash optimization and seamless tiering to object storage on- premises or in the public cloud. As it delivers unsurpassed bandwidth to GPU servers, Weka was the best HPC storage solution for our joint customer SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics.
