Case Study: Hume AI achieves 10 GB/s audio data uploads with Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage

Hume AI hits 10 GB/s upload speeds with Backblaze

Hume AI, a company specializing in emotionally intelligent voice AI, needed a single, high-throughput home for its petabyte-scale audio data. Their previous storage solution, spread across multiple hyperscale object stores, was a bottleneck that risked their ability to meet tight deadlines for research partners.

The solution was consolidating data on Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage. This provided a unified object store that achieved upload speeds of close to 10 GB/s, ensuring their data keeps pace with processing. As a result, Backblaze eliminated storage bottlenecks, allowing Hume to reliably meet its commitments without incurring egress fees.
