TLDR: Infinidat has been recognized with the prestigious 2025 FMS Award for Most Innovative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Application in the Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Workflow category. The award highlights the company’s InfiniBox Platforms for their crucial role in enhancing the accuracy and relevance of generative AI models by leveraging enterprise data.
Waltham, MA – August 13, 2025 – Infinidat, a leading provider of enterprise storage solutions, has proudly announced its win of the 2025 FMS Award for Most Innovative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Application. The company was specifically honored in the “Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Workflow” category for its InfiniBox Platforms, underscoring their significant contribution to advancing AI capabilities within the enterprise. The award was presented at the Future of Memory and Storage (FMS) 2025 event, held from August 5-7 in Santa Clara, California, an event that prominently featured AI innovation across more than 60% of its keynotes and panels.
The recognition stems from Infinidat’s pioneering Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) workflow deployment architecture, which was initially introduced in November 2024. This architecture is designed to enable enterprises to fully harness the power of generative AI (GenAI) by dramatically improving the accuracy and relevancy of AI models. It achieves this by integrating up-to-date, private data from various company sources, including both unstructured and structured data residing on existing Infinidat platforms like InfiniBox and InfiniBox SSA systems.
According to Eric Herzog, CMO at Infinidat, “Infinidat will play a critical role in RAG deployments, leveraging data on InfiniBox enterprise storage solutions, which are perfectly suited for retrieval-based AI workloads.” He further emphasized that “Vector databases that are central to obtaining the information to increase the accuracy of GenAI models run extremely well in Infinidat’s storage environment. Our customers can deploy RAG on their existing storage infrastructure, taking advantage of the InfiniBox system’s high performance, industry-leading low latency, and unique Neural Cache technology, enabling delivery of rapid and highly accurate responses for GenAI workloads.”
A core benefit of Infinidat’s RAG architecture is its ability to optimize the output of AI models without requiring enterprises to purchase specialized equipment. The solution also offers the flexibility of RAG deployment in a hybrid multi-cloud environment through InfuzeOS Cloud Edition, transforming the storage infrastructure into a strategic asset for unlocking the business value of GenAI applications.
Industry experts have lauded Infinidat’s approach. Stan Wysocki, President at Mark III Systems, commented, “Infinidat is bringing enterprise storage and GenAI together in a very important way by providing a RAG architecture that will enhance the accuracy of AI. It makes perfect sense to apply this retrieval-augmented generation for AI to where data is actually stored in an organization’s data infrastructure.” Marc Staimer, President of Dragon Slayer Consulting, added, “Retrieval-augmented generation is a high value proposition area for an enterprise storage solution provider that delivers high levels of performance, 100% guaranteed availability, scalability, and cyber resilience that readily apply to LLM RAG inferencing.”
The RAG workflow continuously refines the AI pipeline with new data, significantly reducing the risk of “AI hallucinations” and enhancing the accuracy of AI model-driven insights. This innovation positions Infinidat as a key enabler for enterprises looking to maximize their investment in generative AI. Bob Elliott, Vice President of Storage Sales for Mainline Information Systems, noted, “As we speak with our customers, they are telling us that they are working to develop their AI strategies. Infinidat is putting the tools in place to make it easier for them to create an AI environment and accomplish their goals.”
