Inside the AI Factory: How DDN Powers End-to-End AI Workflows
DDN· 2026-01-10 00:49
[MUSIC] Hello, I'm Jason from DDN. Today, I want to take you inside the AI Factory and show you how DDN powers full cycle AI workflows from the moment data arrives all the way through training, tuning, and inference. When people talk about AI, they often think only about model training. But an AI Factory is a pipeline with many unique stages, with ingest, data preparation, model training, fine-tuning, and then inference and RAG. As data moves through these stages, the volume increases, the access pattern ...
Apache Spark on Infinia Demo
DDN· 2025-11-11 18:56
AI Workflow & Data Preparation - Infinia plays a crucial role in AI workflows, particularly in data preparation stages, by handling diverse data ingestion, providing low-latency KV store access at scale, and integrating with various AI platforms [2] - The AI pipeline involves data collection, pre-processing, tagging, and indexing as key data preparation steps [1] - DDN's Infinia, combined with Spark integrations, facilitates a smooth and scalable workflow using familiar tools for AI developers [6][7] Data Management & Security - Infinia addresses the challenge of providing secure data buckets for multiple developers through multi-tenancy controls, enabling dynamic addition or removal of secure tenants and subtenants [6] - DDN has developed Spark integrations to efficiently move data into developer tenant buckets [6] - Infinia's multi-tenancy can create secure locations for hosting data used in each inference pipeline [9] Mortgage Default Modeling Demo - The demonstration uses 10 years of quarterly mortgage finance data to model delinquency rates and probabilities on mortgage defaults [4] - Apache Spark is used to prepare the data and pipe it into a model training process that could be run on top of Infinia [3] - The workflow includes extracting recent data subsets, copying them into new Infinia buckets using Spark, and transforming the data into parquet files for model training [4][8] - The model training utilizes the XGBoost machine learning library to create a predictive model for mortgage defaults [9]
Intro to Agent Builder
OpenAI· 2025-10-06 18:00
Hey everyone, this is Christina from OpenAI. Welcome to Agent Builder 101. Agent Builder is a new visual tool for building AI workflows.You connect nodes and create agents without writing any code. So you can start from templates or build your own from scratch. And it also comes with built-in eval so you can test and understand how your agents perform.When you're ready, you can export the workflow as code or drop it straight into your product. Basically, it's your all-in-one space to design, test, and launc ...
