Accelerated Cloud Storage

Accelerated Cloud Storage, or ACS, is a fast object storage system made to work well with AI tasks.

Benefits

ACS boosts performance and cuts costs for data tasks, GPU training, and inference work. It has simple, clear pricing. You pay only for what you use, with no extra fees. The pricing is flat and includes egress costs, so there are no surprises, just savings. This makes ACS great for AI developers, data engineers, and ML engineers who handle large AI and ML training datasets and inference work.

Use Cases

ACS offers cloud storage that you can access through an S3 compatible Python SDK or file system mount. It boosts performance and cuts costs for data tasks, GPU training, and inference work. Regular cloud storage can be costly and slow when handling large AI training and inference tasks. ACS fixes these problems by offering fast, S3 compatible storage with AI specific improvements and file system mount abilities.

Pricing

The pricing is flat and includes egress costs, so there are no surprises, just savings.

Additional Information

ACS started in 2024. It is part of the growing AI infrastructure market, which is expected to reach 309.4 billion dollars by 2028. This growth is driven by the need for better storage solutions.
