AI factories are moving from bigger compute to smarter intelligence 🧠

In this video, Nguyen Khuong Duy, Director of FPT AI Factory Product, FPT Smart Cloud shares how the next generation of AI factories will evolve from centralized systems to a mix of central and edge AI infrastructure. He also explains why lowering training and inferencing costs will be key to making AI more accessible for enterprises, users, and new use cases.

AI factories are redefining how enterprises build, test, and launch AI.

On the GTC Podcast, DDN's Alex Bouzari explains how DSX brings training, post-training, inference, and Omniverse workflows into one deployable AI factory.

Whether in the data center or cloud, it helps organizations move faster from experimentation to real-world products and services.

Your typical Bio-IT session doesn't have this on tap. 🍺

We're live at Harpoon Brewery with DDN, NVIDIA, and Supermicro — and we brought the whole lab with us.

Two live AI pipelines running right now:
💊 Drug discovery acceleration
🏥 Fast MRI analysis with AI

This is what AI infrastructure looks like when it's actually working — not on a slide, not in a whitepaper. In person, at a brewery, today.

📅 May 20th | 9am–5pm ET
📍 Harpoon Brewery, Boston — right next to Bio-IT World

Come see it for yourself → bit.ly/4mwMfaQ

Day one. Bio-IT World. Let's go. 🧬

DDN is on the ground in Boston today — come find us on the show floor at booth #713 and talk AI infrastructure, drug discovery, and what it actually takes to accelerate molecular screening by 100x.

Then join us tonight at Harpoon Brewery to keep the conversation going. 🍺

See you there.

Drug discovery just got a new co-pilot. 🧬

As Viroopax Mijiri put it in conversation with Savannah Peterson — the problem was never the data. It was knowing how to use it.

From Gilead Sciences to Eli Lilly, the pattern was the same: massive datasets, untapped potential. That changed with COVID. AI proved its value in crisis mode — and now that confidence is carrying forward into the lab.

And the infrastructure is catching up. DDN is already accelerating AI molecular screening by 100x, compressing drug discovery timelines in ways that weren't possible even 5 years ago. When your data layer can keep pace with your GPUs — and your GPUs are running at up to 99% utilization instead of sitting idle — science moves faster.

Humanity learned a hard lesson during the pandemic. The silver lining? We came out the other side knowing what AI can do.

Now the question is: how fast can we apply it?

Ferrari-level performance starts with finding the keys to your data 🏎️

NVIDIA’s Matheen Raza, Principal Product Marketing Manager, joins DDN’s Jason Brown, Senior Director of Product & Solutions Marketing, and VirooPax Mirji, Principal AI Solutions Architect, to explain how the same idea applies to AI Infrastructure. Even with incredible GPUs, enterprises need the right data, context, and response times to keep performance moving.

What happens when your GPUs stop waiting? Faster AI training. ⚡

Patrick Rea, PM with the Google Cloud team, shares how infrastructure choices impact GPU utilization during reinforcement learning. Comparing Google Cloud Storage with Fuse against Google Cloud Managed Lustre with DDN, the video shows Managed Lustre helping maintain higher GPU utilization during checkpoint writes and completing a 72B parameter training session in 50 minutes versus 1 hour and 10 minutes.

Learn how DDN and Google Cloud help reduce idle GPU time and accelerate large-scale AI workloads.
