StorONE has deepened its strategic alliance with Phison Electronics, advancing their previous work on high-performance, high-density storage. The expanded partnership now focuses on delivering AI-native, intelligent on-premises storage solutions by integrating Phisonās aiDAPTIV+ memory extension technology with StorONEās high-performance platform.
The partnership between StorONE and Phison aims to empower enterprises and research teams to train and deploy large language models (LLMs) on-premises, using secure, high-throughput storage enhanced with conversational AI interfaces for simple management and optimization.
The joint solution will be available in Q2 2025, offering customers a transformative combination of high-speed, scalable storage and AI embedding acceleration that supports LLM training at scale.
āAt StorONE, we have always believed in making a storage platform not just fast and affordable, but intelligent,ā said Gal Naor, CEO of StorONE. āBy combining our enterprise storage platform with Phisonās aiDAPTIV+, we are enabling AI infrastructure thatās not just smarter, but more accessible.ā
Phisonās aiDAPTIV+ technology expands the available memory for LLM training by extending GPU VRAM with Phison SSDs used as flash memory, enabling cost-effective training of models exceeding billions of parametersāwithout the need for massive numbers of data center GPUs. When paired with StorONEās performance optimized architecture, organizations gain an edge in AI development, privacy-preserving data management, and low-latency inferencing.
āPhison is committed to democratizing AI performance – and our partnership with StorONE expands that vision at scale,ā said Michael Wu, President of Phison-US. āTogether, weāre giving customers a powerful way to accelerate their AI ambitions with secure, intelligent on-premises infrastructure.ā
The upcoming platform will also feature an AI-powered chatbot interface for interacting with storage resources via natural language, allowing administrators and developers to query system status, troubleshoot bottlenecks, and optimize workflows with unprecedented ease.
