Voltron Data

Rodrigo Aramburu, Jing Brewer and I were recently in a conversation with a large bank. They shared their struggles with processing continually growing datasets - think petabyte scale data sets of things like transaction data, credit risk and historical market data.  This presents a bunch of challenges that we have validated across several other banks… 📊 Many are hitting budgetary limits. Unfortunately, specific analyses they need to run become cost prohibitive ⚡ Current systems aren’t fully modernized and as a result, they’re forced to downsample data to meet SLAs, losing critical insights and resulting a more time-consuming process 🔐 Compliance demands required full data scans across years of records, but traditional systems cannot handle the scale efficiently. At Voltron Data, we work with our FinServ customers to leverage GPU acceleration. We like to say we solve data center problems (hardware, land & energy) https://lnkd.in/gEU24RBN ✅ Save on costs by replacing massive rooms of CPU servers with a fraction of GPU infrastructure. ✅ Enable full data scans in minutes, uncovering insights that would have previously been missed ✅ Meets demands of ever-growing AI/ML tooling (which has already been GPU accelerated) - yet most have not yet accelerated the pre-processing of data that feeds those systems. We HAVE at Voltron Data! It’s exciting to see how modern data systems can empower organizations to turn challenges into opportunities. If you’re in financial services and facing similar hurdles, hit me up! 🚀 #DataAnalytics #FinancialServices #BigData #GPUAcceleration #ai #ml

Last week in Fast Company, Voltron Data Field CTO Rodrigo Aramburu explained why we must transition from traditional CPU technology to GPU acceleration. If that caught your attention, check out our latest on-demand webinar, "Breaking Barriers: GPU-Accelerated Data Analytics with Theseus." Dive into how this technological shift is revolutionizing real-world applications with Rodrigo and Felipe Aramburu. 🖥️ Watch now: https://shorturl.at/miO8G 📓 ICYMI read Rodrigo’s Fast Company op-ed here: https://lnkd.in/e7c4qgeX #DataAnalytics #GPUs #BigData #ETL

"When things get really big, they get really weird..." "…the unit economics basically break down." Read Rodrigo Aramburu's observations on how the AI boom has brought renewed attention to GPUs—and discover how we're leveraging them at Voltron Data to manage massive datasets efficiently.

"The future of software is accelerated." ✍ In his latest op-ed for Fast Company, Rodrigo Aramburu dives into the critical need for a shift in how we develop software, emphasizing the necessity of harnessing the power of accelerated hardware like NVIDIA GPUs. From the historical evolution of CPUs and their recent developmental slowdowns to the rise of GPUs and specialized hardware like RISC-V processors, we're on the brink of a revolution in high-performance application development. "Breakthrough tech can no longer rely on CPUs" illustrates why modernization and future-proofing our data processes—be it AI, analytics, or data pipelines—must pivot towards hardware acceleration. 🔗 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eb_GvuFv Join the discussion and share your thoughts on how GPUs are not just leading the way—they are setting a new standard in technology. #DataAnalytics #GPUs #SQL #AI

If #AWSreInvent feels like a break from the pressure you’re under to meet SLAs - let’s talk. When query times lag, teams make tradeoffs by downsampling data to meet deadlines. But partial insights won't cut it in today's complex financial landscape. Full data scans within tight SLAs are the key to detecting fraud, assessing risk, making accurate predictions and smarter decisions — stop compromising. 🔍 Whether you’re at re:Invent or following from afar, explore our use cases to discover how Theseus is tackling some of the biggest data challenges in FSI: https://lnkd.in/e2sqn25s 📩 Meet our experts on-site at AWS re:Invent — Craig Dunham, Balajee Nagarajan, and Jing Brewer — or schedule a demo to dive deeper into the capabilities of Theseus for the financial sector. #AWSreInvent24 #FinancialServices #DataAnalytics #GPUs #SQL

With tremendous pride Yahoo / Yahoo Finance | https://bit.ly/4g36qsJ 'Flawless': Wall Street analysts cheer NVIDIA's latest blowout earnings report By Laura Bratton | Yahoo Finance You can also find the author on X @LauraBratton5 My favorite quote from the article: Wedbush Securities’s Daniel Ives, one of NVIDIA's biggest fans on Wall Street, said the company’s fiscal third quarter earnings reported after the bell Wednesday were "flawless" and “should be framed and hung in the Louvre” in a note to investors Thursday. Ives, with his typical flair, also frequently refers to NVIDIA #CEO Jensen Huang as the “Godfather of #AI” and the company's latest Blackwell AI chip as the “LeBron” of semiconductors. | J.P.

Glad to have shared my thoughts around software, hardware, and our insatiable thirst for more energy with Scott McGrew on NBC Bay Area. https://lnkd.in/gYR-q9gS As data centers, and the energy to run them, represent a larger portion of enterprise P&L we need to start thinking about how we're building software, and whether it is efficient, not simply to make an app faster, but to spend the least amount of energy necessary. We're in a new era of tech companies buying nuclear reactors, it's time to get serious about leveraging more efficient hardware to get the most done with the fewest watts. Voltron Data #SQL on #GPUs
