VAST transforms high-performance computing (HPC) by leveraging its innovative Disaggregated Shared-Everything (DASE) architecture and NVMe-over-Fabrics (NVMe-oF) with RDMA technology to overcome conventional HPC storage bottlenecks. VAST eliminates complex tuning, manual data tiering, and data pre-movement by providing a unified, low-latency storage layer that supports both HPC simulations and AI workloads on the same platform. It efficiently handles small, frequent writes critical for AI checkpointing without metadata congestion, scales independently for storage and compute, and supports multiprotocol native access (NFS, SMB, S3, Block) without gateways.
