Personnel: Greg Scott, Kapil Karkra

Cloud service providers are pushing the boundaries of storage capacities to meet the performance requirements of big data workloads and expanding data volumes. Intel and AliCloud collaborated on Cloud Storage Acceleration Layer (CSAL) to address NAND density and scale challenges. CSAL uses Intel Optane SSDs to improve system performance while reducing costs scaling QLC NAND value. In this presentation, we will show and analyze the real world I/O behaviors from big data services of Alibaba Cloud to demonstrate predictable performance using CSAL. Presented by Greg Scott, Director of Storage Software Products, and Kapil Karkra, Principal Engineer, Storage Software Pathfinding and Architecture, Intel.


Intel Optane Memory Requirements of Meta AI Workloads

Personnel: Chris Petersen, Ehsan Ardestani, Manoj Wadekar

Complexity of AI workloads scales rapidly and entails faster scaling of memory requirement than scaling of the memory technology. In this talk, we break down the memory requirement for recommendation models, as one of the main drivers of AI platforms, and make the case for a new tier of memory, optimized for capacity, to help cope with workload scaling. Using Intel Optane SSD with software-defined memory sales power and allows for a simpler serving paradigm. While the talk argues that CXL-attached memory is a viable solution, as a precursor, it presents empirical results of leveraging additional memory tier using currently available NVMe-attached Storage Class memory. Presented by Manoj Wadekar, Hardware Systems Technologist at Facebook, Ehsan Ardestani, Research Scientist and Technical Lead Manager, Meta, and Chris Petersen, Hardware Systems Technologist, Intel.

Applications are more dynamic and are delivered faster than ever. Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) have traditionally provided application protection with strictly static approaches. These static approaches haven’t been able to keep up with the continuous improvements of quickly iterating applications. Watch as Fortinet demonstrates real-world attack scenarios exploring anomalous traffic, bot attacks, and API security using advanced artificial intelligence. During this session Fortinet will dig into key concepts of machine learning and differentiate Fortinet’s unique approach to automating and accelerating attack response and mitigation.

Cloud journeys and digital transformation have changed the way applications are delivered – faster and more distributed. Web services continue to expand from the data center, to cloud, the edge, and across global CDNs at an accelerating rate. This journey is exposing more interfaces and APIs publicly which represents a massively expanding attack surface. IT technology debt, skill gaps, and the shortage of trained professionals have been hamstrung organizations in their ability to scale with these problems. In this session Fortinet will demonstrate, through attack and defense sequences, how AI-based techniques can fill these gaps and allow security to keep pace with the innovation.
