    Infinio is best suited for infrastructure that has high-latency read IO performance challenges. It does nothing to help write IO, so keep in mind the type of workload for which you need to reduce latency. If you have traditional SAS or SATA storage, Infinio has a tremendous impact on the response time of many applications. You can build your cluster's caching pool from either available RAM or an internal drive inside each host. This flexibility helps Infinio to be suitable across many types of environments.

    Alternatives Considered
    IgniteTech
    Infinio has no real market competition. There was a tool called Pernix FVP that did both read/write acceleration that I evaluated that became end-of-life while it was in POC. It was more complicated to deploy and remove than Infinio and required downtime for each host. Also, the fact that it was no longer supported made the decision to choose Infinio easy.

    1) Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (Formerly CNTK) dont have vast functionalities they are limited to set of rules. 2) They dont support all in one. I.e NetApp ONTAP AI I can analyze, inference and compute on simgle node or system. 3) pricing of Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (Formerly CNTK) is higher than NetApp ONTAP AI
