Accelerated AI and ML Workloads refer to the use of specialized hardware accelerators, such as GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) or TPUs (Tensor Processing Units), to enhance the performance of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) tasks.

Accelerated AI and ML workloads often require high bandwidth memory to keep up with the massive amounts of data being processed. There's a need for memory architectures that can deliver higher bandwidth to match the computational capabilities of modern accelerators. This could involve innovations in DRAM design, such as wider memory buses, faster memory interfaces, or the integration of high-bandwidth memory (HBM) technologies.

AI is a data-intensive application that generates and processes large amounts of data. SMART Modular's NVDIMM, persistent memory with SafeStor™ encryption, dramatically accelerates system performance for logging, tiering, caching and write buffering, making it an ideal memory solution for AI applications. NVDIMMs are an ideal solution for dramatically accelerating system performance for AI and ML applications.
