Latency in AI deployments is a significant tax on innovation, forcing a trade-off between latency, accuracy, and cost. This "AI triad" problem, where organizations often sacrifice one aspect for the others, is exacerbated by the increasing demand for fast inference, which is projected to account for two-thirds of compute. The core issue stems from the distance between data and compute, leading to slow response times and impacting customer trust and business results. Addressing this requires infrastructure that can serve data at memory speeds to ensure consistent, low-latency performance. AI
