It Is Not Just About The Data; It Is About Getting The Data To Where It Is Needed When It Is Needed

There is an old saying that data rises to meet available storage. That is one reason I laughed at the phrase "big data" when it came out. We've always been working with as much data as possible. What has changed now is that the data volumes in artificial intelligence (AI), HPC, and other modern arenas is finally hitting a wall that's not storage space or processing power, it's the bandwidth for the two work together with low latency for the variety of data requests that exist. Newer solutions are coming out in order to address that problem.
