Magnum IO is part of the NVIDIA data center acceleration platform that maximizes storage, network, and multi-node, multi-GPU communication. GPUDirect Storage (GDS), is a component in the Magnum IO toolset that allows GPUs and storage to exchange data directly, bypassing CPU and system memory.
Combined with NFSoRDMA, GDS creates a highly efficient, congestion free network connection from storage to GPU memory.
