Enterprises are increasingly facing challenges in processing large volumes of data at the edge, especially with the growing demand for AI-driven decision-making. Traditionally, edge data is sent to the cloud for processing, but this approach is becoming impractical due to network limitations and the sheer volume of data being generated. Tsecond’s BRYCK AI platform addresses these challenges by enabling AI inferencing directly at the edge, eliminating the need to transfer data to the cloud. The BRYCK AI platform integrates both storage and AI processing capabilities within a single unit, allowing for real-time decision-making without the need for external GPUs or cloud connectivity. This is particularly beneficial for edge environments where traditional AI infrastructure, such as GPUs, cannot be easily deployed due to space and power constraints.
The BRYCK AI platform is highly configurable, allowing customers to tailor the amount of storage and AI processing power to their specific needs. It supports a wide range of AI workloads, from small-scale applications like drones to large-scale operations such as ships or satellites. The platform’s architecture is designed for high-speed data processing, with both storage and AI chips connected via PCIe Gen 4, ensuring minimal latency and eliminating bottlenecks typically seen in traditional GPU-based systems. This allows for faster inferencing, with benchmarks showing the BRYCK AI platform to be 10 to 20 times faster than comparable Nvidia solutions. Additionally, the platform is power-efficient, making it suitable for deployment in various edge environments where power consumption is a critical factor.
Tsecond offers different configurations of the BRYCK AI platform, including rugged, portable versions for harsh environments and more flexible, open versions for data center use. The platform also supports a leasing model, allowing customers to upgrade their systems as their needs evolve. The BRYCK AI platform is designed to handle large-scale data processing, such as in manufacturing plants generating petabytes of data daily, where traditional AI systems would struggle to keep up. By integrating AI processing directly with storage, the BRYCK AI platform provides a scalable, efficient solution for edge AI inferencing, enabling enterprises to make real-time decisions without the delays and limitations of cloud-based processing.
