Kioxia aims to change the storage paradigm with a proposed SSD designed to surpass 10 million input/output operations per second (IOPS) in small-block workloads, the company revealed at its Corporate Strategy Meeting earlier this week. That's three times faster than the peak speeds of many modern SSDs.
One of the performance bottlenecks of modern AI servers is the data transfer between storage and GPUs, as data is currently transferred by the CPU, which significantly increases latencies and extends access times.
