VDURA and Wasabi Technologies have formed a technology alliance to connect GPU-adjacent AI data infrastructure with predictably priced, S3-compatible cloud storage. The partnership targets AI factories, neoclouds, and enterprise high-performance computing environments that need to keep active datasets and model checkpoints close to GPUs while moving inactive data to lower-cost cloud capacity. The approach is

Historically, every storage read by a GPU has traversed the host CPU, which manages the file system, submits commands, and returns the data. This overhead is negligible for large sequential transfers but becomes a limiting factor when handling millions of 512-byte operations per second. At FMS 2026 in Santa Clara, NVIDIA announced new software and

Samsung used the Future of Memory and Storage (FMS) 2026 conference to present its latest memory and storage technologies for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. The company highlighted developments in DRAM, NAND, enterprise storage, advanced packaging, and semiconductor manufacturing. Samsung’s opening keynote, titled “Driving the Wave of AI Revolution: 3D Innovations in Memory & Storage

Lenovo’s ThinkPad P14s Gen 7 packs a Series 3 Intel Core Ultra 7 366H with Intel vPro and NVIDIA’s RTX PRO 1000 Blackwell Generation laptop GPU into a 14.5-inch mobile workstation that starts at 3.59 pounds. Our review unit backs that pairing with 64GB of LPCAMM2 memory in a single customer-replaceable module, a 2TB PCIe

IBM and three research partners, the University of Chicago, Algorithmiq, and Qedma, have published separate quantum-computing studies focused on a common barrier to quantum advantage claims: establishing confidence in results that classical systems cannot directly reproduce. The work spans encoded logical circuits, quantum-material simulations, and error-mitigated many-body physics. In each case, IBM Quantum Heron processors

KIOXIA has introduced the GP1 Series PCIe 6.0 NVMe SSD, the first product in its GP Series of Super High IOPS drives optimized for GPU direct access. KIOXIA describes it as building on the GP Series technology it introduced in March, now realized in shipping silicon. Built around second-generation KIOXIA XL-FLASH memory, the drive is

Supermicro has introduced an expanded rack portfolio for high-density AI and other mission-critical data center deployments. The lineup includes rack options based on NVIDIA MGX platforms, Open Compute Project Open Rack v3 (ORv3), and conventional EIA 19-inch designs, with configurations designed to support liquid-cooled GPU clusters and rack-scale infrastructure. The new systems are part of

ScaleFlux has introduced an AI-optimized SSD platform designed for NVIDIA CMX and other inference architectures that use SSDs as a shared KV-cache tier beyond GPU HBM and host DRAM. The platform combines high-endurance SSD hardware, Flexible Data Placement (FDP) support, and workload telemetry intended to improve data placement, reduce write amplification, and extend effective endurance

WEKA announced that Andromeda, the platform that connects AI teams with high-performance compute across an open market of providers, is integrating WEKA NeuralMesh as a core data storage layer for its managed GPU clusters. Andromeda customers can choose between a dedicated NeuralMesh deployment and a GPU-native NeuralMesh Axon configuration, giving them consistent storage performance on
