Understanding Lustre Performance: Throughput in High-Demand Scenarios
When it comes to AI and machine learning applications, data throughput can become the deciding factor between success and failure. Lustre’s architecture is designed to offer unmatched performance across large-scale clusters, and the achievable throughput can be optimized based on the hardware configuration—specifically, the type of storage drives used and the network infrastructure in place. Throughput on Different Storage Drives 1. HDDs (Hard Disk Drives) For installations that use traditional HDDs, throughput generally peaks between 100 to 200 MB/s…
