DAOS Delivers Exascale Performance Using HPC Storage So Fast It Requires New Units of Measurement

Forget what you previously knew about high-performance storage and file systems. New I/O models for HPC such as Distributed Asynchronous Object Storage (DAOS) have been architected from the ground up to make use of new NVM technologies such as Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory Modules (Intel Optane DCPMMs). With latencies measured in nanoseconds and bandwidth measured in tens of GB/s, new storage devices such as Intel DCPMMs redefine the measures used to describe high-performance nonvolatile storage.

YugaByte Commits to 100 Percent Open Source with Apache 2.0 License

YugaByte, a leader in open source distributed SQL databases, announced that YugaByte DB is now 100 percent open source under the Apache 2.0 license, bringing previously commercial features into the open source core. The move, in addition to other updates available now through YugaByte DB 1.3, allows users to more openly collaborate across what is now the world’s most powerful open source distributed SQL database.

“Intelligent Storage” Market Survey Shows Growing Problem Moving Large Data Sets for a Variety of Applications

G2M Research, an analyst firm covering the Non-Volatile Memory Express® (NVMe) marketplace, released the results of its recent survey on the need for “Intelligence storage” for applications with large data sets. The survey, sponsored by NGD Systems, was conducted across 112 respondents from organizations involved in Big Data, artificial intelligence/machine learning, and Internet of Things (IoT) applications.

Big Data Analytics: Ericsson

Analytics-generated insights are increasingly driving successful decision-making for communication service providers (CSPs). From network enablers to business support systems, there are opportunities to utilize insights gathered from careful analysis of network data.
Big data is at the core of this opportunity. But the traditional technology view of big data is not enough. Rather than focusing on big data technology, CSPs should start from the business value they want to create and apply extensive telecom competence to understand how the relevant insights can be extracted from raw data before applying big data techniques as needed.

Big Data, Big Innovations

With a traditional data warehouse powering big data, it’s not unusual for data loads and complex queries to run for days, which hinders the analytical process. Plus, these data warehouse environments are often designed to analyze structured data only, and not valuable unstructured data generated from new external sources such as social media and mobile computing.
