The Problem

  • "AI is data-hungry, and current infrastructure is a bottleneck."

  • Explosive growth of ML/AI data demands.

  • Traditional storage systems are grossly limited in handling massive datasets and high-speed processing are well known. Why pay for Enterprise systems when you need a workhorse for your LLM's?

  • You cannot scale to grow your AI/ML environment without buying OEM complete Enterprise solutions just to process LLM's.

  • Current solutions, especially with embedded GPU's cost massive amounts of energy and inefficiencies of scale.

  • Current OEM solutions are too slow, ( 1.3Million USD for 1 Million IOPS?) too expensive, and too power hungry."

    • ​Executive Summary: Unleashing the Power of AI and Machine Learning with Accelerated Data Analytics

    • ​In today's data-driven landscape, deriving actionable intelligence from massive datasets is paramount. Splunk Enterprise stands as a powerful platform for real-time data analysis, but its potential is often bottlenecked by traditional IT infrastructure. Oscuro Ai addresses this challenge head-on, delivering a revolutionary solution that accelerates Splunk performance, enabling organizations to fully leverage AI and Machine Learning (ML) capabilities.

    • ​Traditional data center architectures, reliant on NAS, SAN, virtualization, and cloud solutions, struggle to keep pace with the demands of modern data analytics. As datasets and ingest rates explode, these architectures introduce latency and scalability limitations, hindering the performance of Splunk and impeding the development of advanced AI/ML applications.

    • OscuroAi's Splunk Appliances (ASAs) offer a paradigm shift. Leveraging NVMe over Ethernet technology, ASAs create a fabric-based storage network that delivers the performance of direct-attached storage (DAS) at scale. This innovative approach eliminates the bottlenecks inherent in traditional storage controllers, enabling Splunk to achieve unprecedented levels of performance and scalability.
