AI data platforms represent a new category of AI infrastructure that handles the pre-processing of enterprise data, including data ingestion, normalization, vectorization and the hand-off of data to the enterprise AI factory. These scalable systems, which incorporate both data management and GPU infrastructure, can start small for workgroups and scale as demand grows. Preintegrated software and hardware enable faster on-site deployment and operational readiness. Built-in workflows for RAG, visual search and document processing, among other capabilities, provide an accessible starting point for AI. Experts from DDN, Solidigm and Supermicro discuss AI data platform use cases.
