Without the right infrastructure, AI investments can become a nightmare.
AI has enormous potential, but too many organizations are stuck in a data-driven horror story. Ghosts of legacy systems linger in the background. Zombie workloads consume valuable resources. Unstructured data becomes a tangled web of missed opportunities.
At Jeskell, we help clients exorcise these infrastructure nightmares. With IBM technologies like Storage Ceph, Storage Scale, and watsonx.data, we build environments that are scalable, secure, and ready for AI. If your strategy is underperforming, the problem may not be your models, it may be the architecture supporting them.
Here are five scary signs your AI infrastructure may be cursed and what you can do about it.
1. Ghosts of Legacy Systems Past
Legacy systems may still be running in the background, but they often cause more harm than good. Outdated storage cannot meet the throughput and responsiveness required by AI, especially when you are working with massive data sets.
What to do: Modernize your storage with IBM Storage Scale. Its high-performance file system enables faster data movement, better model training times, and support for distributed AI workloads.
2. Zombie Workloads That Drain Resources
Inefficient processes that were once useful may now slow everything down. These zombie workloads waste compute and storage power and make it harder to respond quickly to changing mission needs.
What to do: Streamline operations using modern architectures like watsonx.data. Jeskell helps implement flexible platforms that support current and future AI use cases without waste.
3. The Unstructured Data Swamp
Most enterprise data is unstructured and often stored in formats that are difficult to access. AI cannot make smart decisions if it cannot see the data. Without the right tools, valuable information stays buried.
What to do: Use IBM Storage Ceph and watsonx.data to bring structure to the chaos. Jeskell designs systems that make all your data available to AI, regardless of format or location.
4. Shadow IT Silos
When teams build their own systems without coordination, it leads to silos. These disconnected data environments create inefficiencies, limit visibility, and often result in duplicated or incomplete data sets.
What to do: Jeskell helps unify environments so your data works together. Whether on premises or in the cloud, your storage should function as a single, governed ecosystem.
5. The Compliance Crypt
Without secure infrastructure and strong governance, your data may be exposed to compliance risks. Sensitive data needs protection, especially in AI workflows that use real-world information.
What to do: Implement infrastructure built with security in mind. IBM Storage solutions provide encryption, access control, and auditing. Jeskell helps ensure compliance without compromising performance.
Exorcise Infrastructure Nightmares with Jeskell & IBM
Haunted infrastructure may be great for Halloween stories, but it is no way to manage your AI investments. If you are dealing with slow systems, messy data, or hidden risks, Jeskell can help.
We specialize in building secure, scalable environments using IBM Storage Ceph, IBM Storage Scale, and watsonx.data. Whether you are optimizing analytics, supporting GenAI, or scaling model training, we help you design infrastructure that performs and protects.
Let’s replace the horror with high performance.
