Hammerspace Tier 0: Unlocking Greater Efficiency in GPU-Driven Computing
Technological advances within HPC and AI over the past few years have led to a rapid increase in GPU-driven computing. The potential of technologies that are heavily reliant on GPU computing, such as new generative AI applications, has challenged a wide range of organizations to quickly meet new and demanding infrastructure requirements. IT organizations are tasked with standing up such environments as quickly as possible, yet face several challenges related to cost, efficiency, power, and performance.
This paper explores Hammerspace Tier 0 storage that extends the Hammerspace software to activate local extreme performance NVMe storage within GPU servers, unlocking previously siloed capacity and easing the challenges of GPU-based computing.

Animationsinstitut of Filmakademie BadenWürttemberg (FABW) Chooses Hammerspace as the Data Storage Platform for Students and Faculty Across Distributed Campus
The Animationsinstitut, one of the world’s leading academic institutions for animation, visual effects, technical directing and interactive media, has chosen Hammerspace as the data platform for students and faculty across its distributed campus. The Animationsinstitut is part of Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg (FABW) in Ludwigsburg, Germany, and has established itself as one of the leading international film schools.
FABW manages between 200 and 250 projects per year, many of which are produced either at or in collaboration with the Animationsinstitut, that include requirements for high-performance data ingest and processing, as well as supporting multiple students collaborating on a single project. Additionally, the institute was looking for a solution that could take its render workloads out of its on-premises server room into the cloud.
