DDN, the premier worldwide supplier of AI and data intelligence solutions, introduced its most innovative next-generation Data Intelligence Platform at the International Supercomputing Conference for the year 2025.
This groundbreaking launch includes the highly anticipated AI400X3 appliance, along with an update to the Infinia 2.1 software version, and will transform our world’s ability to support data for Artificial Intelligence and High-Performance Computing.
Built from the ground up to meet the increasing requirements placed on the most advanced AI and HPC workloads, the DDN Data Intelligence Platform’s AI400X3 flagship appliance, operated by the EXAScaler® technology, is experiencing a 70% higher output during the writing and a 55 percent higher output during the read.
DDN Experts stress that this performance jump is critical for speeding up AI model training, research, and complex simulations. For example, it ensures that the GPUs are never idle and always receiving data to guarantee customers get the most out of their AI infrastructure investment.
In addition, the AI400X3 enhances with enterprise-level multi-tenancy, including per-tenant isolation, VLANs, quotas, and access controls. It is ideal for cloud service providers, significant businesses requiring secure and efficient data segregation. On top of that, the innovative appliance features proactive management of failing drives and online updates with no downtime to ensure there is no match for mission-critical AI availability.
With the AI400X3, Infinia 2.1 also presents new assets designed to streamline the AI data pipeline from beginning to end. This is exemplified by the demonstration of the Infinia Hadoop Connector, which is similar to S3 access but is connected to high-performance Hadoop and Spark services.
In addition, Infinia 2.1 introduces integration with enterprise surveillance and monitoring apps such as Datadog, Chronosphere, and OpenTelemetry to deliver a more in-depth understanding of firm infrastructure and minimize resolution times. DDN’s Design is compatible with NVIDIA DGX™, NVIDIA GB200, Spectrum-X™ and BlueField® DPUs, complete with existing NVIDIA-endorsed reference installations. This demonstrated implementation displays DDN’s pledge to begin assembling an AI bridge.
The AI400X3 and Infinia 2.1 will transform AI transformation by providing businesses with the necessary equipment to access the right level of AI-driven achievement, performance, control, and savings on a unified dashboard.
DDN expects to announce the next revolutionary possibilities at ISC 2025 by live exchanging these powerful new innovations, which may enhance our clients’ ability to innovate and impact enterprises, CSPs, and research groups across the world. Sven Oehme, the Chief Technology Officer of DDN, said.
