Vast Data Ltd and cloud provider CoreWeave, announced a partnership that will further CoreWeave’s mission to deliver highly scalable and performing cloud infrastructure for AI and accelerated compute workloads.
CoreWeave has selected the Vast Data Platform designed for the AI era, to build a global, NVIDIA-powered accelerated computing cloud for deploying, managing and securing hundreds of petabytes of data for generative AI, HPC and visual effects (VFX) workloads.
It did research and testing before selecting Vast Data to power all of its data centers. The Vast Data Platform has the necessary scale, performance, and multi-tenant enterprise AI cloud capabilities required to power the massive AI and LLM training and inference applications that are transforming everything from business, to science, to society itself.
“CoreWeave’s customers demand the most secure and scalable solutions on top of the industry’s fastest and most flexible infrastructure to keep their data safe,” said Michael Intrator, CEO and co-founder, CoreWeave. “We’re delighted to partner with Vast Data to deliver a multi-tenant and zero-trust environment purpose-built for accelerated compute use cases like ML, VFX and rendering, Pixel Streaming and batch processing that’s up to 35x faster and 80 % less expensive than legacy cloud providers. This partnership is rooted in a deep technical collaboration that will push the boundaries of data-driven accelerated computing to deliver the world’s most optimized AI cloud platform.“
Through their joint partnership, the two companies are leveraging NVIDIA technology to engineer a data platform architecture for large-scale, end-to-end data pipelines and deliver next gen data services for AI workloads. To support this, the Vast Data Platform boasts an enterprise network attached data store that is certified for use with NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD and eliminates tiers and infrastructure silos to make large scale AI simpler, faster and easier to manage at virtually limitless levels of scale and performance.
“Since our earliest days, Vast Data has had a single vision of building an architecture that could power the needs of the most demanding cloud-scale AI applications,” said Renen Hallak, founder and CEO, Vast Data. “We could not imagine a better cloud platform to realize this vision than what we’re creating with CoreWeave. We are humbled and honored to partner with the CoreWeave team to push the boundaries of modern AI computing and to build the infrastructure that will serve as the foundation of tomorrow’s AI-powered discoveries.“
