Oracle AI World 2025: Hammerspace Demonstrates Breakthrough in GPU Storage Performance
Tier 0 architecture turns Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Bare Metal NVMe into the fastest, most efficient storage tier for AI
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on October 14, 2025 at 2:01 pmHammerspace Inc. announced that it will demonstrate the power and performance of its Tier 0 architecture at Oracle AI World 2025, October 13-16 in Las Vegas, NV.With Tier 0, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Supercluster – a bare metal GPU server cluster – operates with ultra-high-performance shared storage, helping to reduce bottlenecks and minimize GPU idle time.
By transforming existing local NVMe storage in OCI GPU shapes into a persistent, ultra-fast shared storage tier, Hammerspace eliminates data silos and unifies storage, unlocking a new level of efficiency and performance for AI workloads. Hammerspace will demonstrate its Tier 0 architecture, which enables AI training, checkpointing, inference and agentic AI workloads to run with higher throughput, lower latency and better GPU utilization, while providing access to all this data in a single namespace.
Performance That Redefines the Rules
Recent benchmark testing on OCI proves the power of the Tier 0 architecture, which includes:
- Up to 7x improvement in latency vs. traditional cloud file storage
- Up to 6x improvement in storage performance vs. traditional cloud file storage
- Checkpointing at extreme speeds, crushing idle time
- Throughput so fast it keeps GPUs fed 24/7, not waiting on data
- Policy-driven flexibility to move cold data to lower-cost tiers without touching the hot path
OCI and Hammerspace Provide AI-Ready Solutions
“Our customers are excited about Hammerspace’s partnership with OCI,” said Tony Asaro, CSBDO, Hammerspace. “With Hammerspace, they get the highest levels of performance at scale, a global namespace for multisite access, data orchestration and data assimilation on OCI, a major public cloud that has been architected and optimized for AI workloads. The combination provides a complete AI-ready solution, whether for small projects and/or massive environments.”
In addition, Hammerspace will demonstrate the power of Tier 0 at the event:
