Information

Microsoft Azure and Hammerspace have joined forces to unlock a new tier of storage performance—Tier 0—by combining Azure ND H100 v5 VMs with local NVMe storage and global data orchestration. This powerful architecture eliminates the need to replicate or manually move data, accelerating AI and HPC workflows with zero-copy efficiency.
Join experts from Azure and Hammerspace as they present real-world performance benchmarks—including FIO, IOR, and Megatron GPU performance tests—running on a fleet of Azure ND H100 v5 VMs with NVIDIA Tensor Core GPUs. Discover how Tier 0 architecture delivers massive speed gains and transforms how data feeds today’s most demanding AI workloads.
