NVIDIA GTC 2025: H2O.ai and VAST Data Up to Bring Agentic GenAI and Predictive AI to Enterprises’ EB-scale Datasets

H2O.ai and VAST Data Ltd. are teaming up to bring agentic GenAI and predictive AI to enterprises’ EB-scale datasets.

This joint solution combines VAST Data’s infrastructure for storing and managing all data types (video, audio, documents, sensor data) with H2O.ai’s enterprise h2oGPTe platform to deliver retrieval-augmented answers, powerful model fine-tuning options, and grounded insights for enterprise users across on-premise, airgapped, and private cloud deployments.

By combining H2O.ai’s h2oGPTe with the VAST Data Platform, enterprises benefit from:

• Agentic AI Interface – H2O.ai’s conversational user experience enables a natural language interface for powerful retrieval, code execution, tools, APIs, and self-critique – resulting in grounded, domain-specific responses.
• A Unified Generative and Predictive AI Layer – h2oGPTe converges generative and predictive capabilities in a single agentic interface, supporting proprietary or open-source large language models for domain-specific insights on private data.
• Scalable, Context-Rich Insights – VAST Data’s EB-scale data platform connects structured and unstructured data sources (video, audio, documents, sensor data) for AI inference that remains both comprehensive and precise.
• Flexible Deployment Options – Containerized on Kubernetes, the combined solution can be operated on-premises, in airgapped settings, or in private clouds – wherever the GPUs reside.

“h2oGPTe the world’s #1 Agent AI with VAST data platform makes the perfect platform for sovereign AI. Agentic AI is bringing incredible agility to businesses and modern automated workflows are transforming SaaS. With the accuracy of H2O.ai and instant access to any volume and variety of data from VAST, enterprises can deliver real-time decisions and become AI superpowers,” said Sri Ambati, founder and CEO, H2O.ai.

With this combined offering, enterprises can build agentic AI applications – from digital assistants, call center automation, and Document AI to AI-driven procurement analytics and IT support – on top of the VAST Data Platform. The result is immediate value from enterprise-scale datasets, with low overhead for managing the complexity of large language models, specialized domain models, and multi-modal inputs such as images and videos.

“As AI becomes the foundation of modern enterprise innovation, organizations need a data platform that can fuel real-time intelligence without limitations,” said John Mao, VP, global technology alliances, VAST Data. “The VAST Data Platform was purpose-built to handle exabyte-scale datasets, enabling businesses to seamlessly unify and process structured and unstructured data within a single, high-performance AI pipeline to power the next era of intelligent automation. By collaborating with H2O.ai, we’re empowering enterprises to build agentic AI applications, extract deeper insights, make autonomous decisions, and accelerate AI-driven workflows with unmatched efficiency, accuracy, and scale.”
