Major enterprise companies continue to launch new solutions for the revolution in generative AI, and Nvidia Inc. and Vast Data Inc. have added their own installment in this ongoing saga.

As part of Vast’s unveiling of the Vast Data Platform yesterday, the company also announced the integration of its new offering with Nvidia’s DGX AI supercomputing platform.

“The work that Vast does mirrors our own design philosophy, and how we look at the full AI developer stack and what’s required to give these teams productive work capacity that can scale linear with the size of system that’s being used,” said Tony Paikeday (pictured, center) senior director of product marketing, AI systems at Nvidia. “Our customers have asked us time and again to simplify this, give us better performance with scale, better utilization, better productive work capacity for data scientists and developers. That’s what this coming together is all about.”

Paikeday spoke with theCUBE industry analyst John Furrier (left) at the Vast presents: Build Beyond event, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio. He was joined by John Mao (right), vice president of global business development at Vast, and they discussed Tuesday’s announcement and how the two firms have collaborated to meet the AI needs of enterprise customers.

New global namespace

The news from Vast included the launch of Vast DataSpace, a global namespace designed to allow any location to store, retrieve and access information from any other location, including multiple cloud platforms.

“Everybody wants that flexibility that hybrid model of being able to compute where they choose,” Mao said. “DataSpace is now our ability to stretch our namespace in a hybrid manner to anywhere the customer so chooses.”

Vast’s partnership with Nvidia and the solutions announced represent a continued focus on providing new data-driven architectures to realize the potential of generative AI.

“Data is the source code of the enterprise today, it’s what fuels AI development,” Paikeday said. “Our customers have been looking for platforms that make it easier, that bring the computational power to where that data lives. It’s a lot easier to bring your plant to where the water is versus having to pipe it.”
