These tokens normally need to be stored in the server&#8217;s GPU memory to avoid time-consuming recalculations. The problem is that the GPU memory quickly becomes full &#8211; slowing down the whole process.  <\/p><p class=\"\" data-start=\"800\" data-end=\"1143\">VAST&#8217;s VUA solves this by cleverly storing these tokens on lightning-fast NVMe-connected SSDs. This gives GPU servers access to significantly more &#8220;virtual&#8221; memory, without sacrificing performance. This means AI services can scale up faster, handling more complex queries while reducing both response times and hardware costs.  <\/p><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1145\" data-end=\"1162\"><strong data-start=\"1145\" data-end=\"1160\">What does it mean for a CFO?<\/strong><\/p><ul data-start=\"1163\" data-end=\"1366\"><li class=\"\" data-start=\"1163\" data-end=\"1237\"><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1165\" data-end=\"1237\">Shorter response times = better user experience and competitive advantage.<\/p><\/li><li class=\"\" data-start=\"1238\" data-end=\"1284\"><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1240\" data-end=\"1284\">Less need to buy more expensive GPUs.<\/p><\/li><li class=\"\" data-start=\"1285\" data-end=\"1366\"><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1287\" data-end=\"1366\">Increased efficiency and lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of AI infrastructure.<\/p><\/li><\/ul><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1390\"><strong data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1388\">What it means for a technician:<\/strong><\/p><ul data-start=\"1391\" data-end=\"1660\"><li class=\"\" data-start=\"1391\" data-end=\"1478\"><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1393\" data-end=\"1478\">VUA creates a new cache layer between GPU, CPU and NVMe, integrated with GPUDirect.<\/p><\/li><li class=\"\" data-start=\"1479\" data-end=\"1564\"><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1481\" data-end=\"1564\">Global, shared cache that can handle billions of tokens and minimize cache misses.<\/p><\/li><li class=\"\" data-start=\"1565\" data-end=\"1660\"><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1567\" data-end=\"1660\">292% faster token generation in tests &#8211; and support for the increasingly large AI models of the future.<\/p><\/li><\/ul><p data-start=\"1662\" data-end=\"1925\"> <\/p><h5 data-start=\"1662\" data-end=\"1925\">With VUA from VAST, companies can take their AI initiatives to the next level, while optimizing their infrastructure investments.
