High performance storage company Panasas had an active profile at ISC 2023, highlighting its new ActiveStor Ultra Edge platform, an HPC and AI/ML storage offering for edge computing environments. We spoke with Jeff Whitaker, vice president of product strategy and marketing, on the company’s software-wrapped-around-hardware evolution.
We also discuss the company’s investment in edge computing solutions and the vertical industries most interested in this offering. Not only is edge a hot-growth market (it grew by more than 13 percent in 2022) but it enables running HPC and AI/ML workloads at remote locations – closer to where data is generated – for real-time and near-time decision making.
