GenreX
Orchestrating the Future of Music Production
GenreX needed to accelerate AI research and development to accelerate their time to market. GenreX was at the beginning of a 3-phase journey and needed to move fast, uninhibited by AWSs SLAs, or turnaround times:
Research Phase: Quickly validate their hypothesis at low cost with GPUs readily available.
Production Phase: Scale up their training with more data and GPUs to accelerate time to market.
Deployment Phase: Launch their app and serve up their model behind an endpoint.
Ideally, the platform would be user-friendly and cost-effective during research, but also scale up to the demands of bringing that model to production.
“This platform is the perfect combination of tools for fast iteration and sanity-checking in the research phase but can scale up for training a production model.”
Use Lightning AI Studios to expedite experimentation, reduce redundant tasks such as environment management and data loading, and access cost-effective GPUs to accelerate time to market.
