CHATSWORTH, Calif.: #AI--DDN®, the world’s leader in AI and data intelligence solutions, today announced that it has secured the #1 position against its competitors on the IO500 benchmark—the industry’s gold standard for real-world storage performance in AI and HPC.
If You Rely on GPUs, AI Workloads, or HPC Simulations, You Need the Best Technology to Achieve the Best Outcome.
Whether your mission is curing diseases, protecting financial markets, or transforming entire industries with generative AI, your outcomes hinge entirely on Data Center and Cloud infrastructure performance. The latest IO500 benchmark confirms what top innovators already know: DDN isn’t just leading the pack—we’ve left it behind entirely.
IO500 Proves It: DDN Leads and Delivers 3x to 11x More Value Than Other Data Platform Technologies
IO500 isn't just another benchmark—it’s the gold standard for assessing real-world storage performance in AI and HPC environments. It plays a critical role in helping organizations determine which technologies to deploy and which vendors to trust. Unlike synthetic benchmarks that simulate hypothetical conditions, IO500 tests systems under real-world pressures—mixed workloads, complex I/O patterns, metadata-intensive operations, and concurrent tasks—exactly the kinds of challenges AI and HPC infrastructures face every day. The result? Clear, credible insights into how your infrastructure will perform when performance matters most.
“AI is transforming every industry, and the organizations leading that transformation are the ones that understand infrastructure performance is not optional — it’s mission-critical,” said Alex Bouzari, Co-Founder and CEO of DDN. “Being ranked #1 on the IO500 benchmark is more than a technical achievement — it’s proof that our customers can count on DDN to deliver the speed, scale, and reliability needed to turn data into competitive advantage. DDN is not just ahead. We have left the competition behind.”
In the critical 10-node production category—where real-world AI workloads operate under intense pressure and where the majority of customer use cases live—DDN isn’t just ahead of the competition; it’s setting a new industry standard. This leadership translates directly into tangible value for organizations: accelerating innovation, enabling the creation of superior products and services, and expanding the boundaries of what’s possible with AI and HPC.
[Add in final chart/scorecard]
The information means that with DDN, your data center, GPU, CPU, AI, HPC infrastructure will deliver up to 11x more AI training sessions, simulations, and analytics runs per day compared to Weka or VAST. Simply put, you get a lot more done faster, save millions of dollars, while significantly accelerating your business outcomes.
Why This Matters for Your AI and HPC Workloads
AI and HPC cannot tolerate slowdowns—every minute of wasted compute time drains both budget and innovation momentum. Topping the IO500 rankings proves DDN delivers exceptional end-to-end performance that translates into real business benefits:
