Nuix partners with Atturra & HPE to boost AI platform speed

Nuix, based in Sydney, Australia, has announced a collaborative initiative with Atturra and Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) that dramatically accelerates AI workloads on its Neo software platform. This project aims to meet the growing needs of governments and corporations struggling under increasing regulatory pressures and tight deadlines. These entities are required to analyse expansive amounts of unstructured data in response to information requests and various fraud investigations. The incorporation of improved AI enrichment is expected to significantly enhance productivity and accuracy for these organisations.

The initiative involved running Nuix's AI Neo software platform on HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 servers equipped with NVIDIA GPUs. The results indicated that AI workloads processing various forms of unstructured data, such as text, chat messages, emails, images, and video, operated 10 times faster compared to previous CPU-based benchmarks. This advancement is lauded as a critical development for both Nuix and Atturra's clients, enabling more efficient investigations and better data management.

Oliver Harvey, Nuix’s Chief Customer Strategy and Innovation Officer, highlighted the significance of this innovation. “This is a transformative development for our Nuix Neo platform. When we created Neo, we wanted to create a platform that was 10 times faster and synchronised all our leading capability. Now in conjunction with Atturra’s services and HPE’s infrastructure, we bring this vision to life, helping to supercharge the speed and accuracy of critical data projects, improving the productivity of all involved,” stated Harvey.

Stephen Kowal, CEO of Atturra, also expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration. “Nuix has always led the industry globally in processing and analysing messy and unstructured data. Through our work with HPE, we are thrilled to be able to bring the infrastructure and services, supporting AI workloads, and unlock faster analysis for more shared clients,” Kowal said.

Chris Weber, Vice President of HPE South Pacific, explained the technological demands associated with AI. “The data and computational demands of AI require a fundamentally different approach to technology that addresses the unique needs of these types of workloads. As part of NVIDIA AI Computing by HPE, HPE ProLiant servers are built to accelerate AI-powered enterprises, whilst optimizing performance and cost, and we are pleased to help Nuix and Atturra’s customers across the globe leverage AI solutions to grow their businesses,” Weber noted.

This enhanced capability will be showcased by Atturra in September at the upcoming Nuix XLR8 event.
