At ISC 2023: Panasas Pushes HPC and AI Storage to the Edge

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.
