OpenAI Builds Faster Code Storage That Cuts Push Delays by 80%
OpenAI built its own system for storing and sharing code, called Pando. It works with Git, the tool developers use to track code changes. Pando handles each branch separately and reuses saved data when fetching code. It cut the typical wait for pushing changes by nearly 80%, and it now moves close to a petabyte of code data each day.
