Arkane Cloud chooses VAST Data for its sovereign AI services

VAST Data has launched VAST DataEnclave, a confidential AI capability that enables secure integration of leading AI models with sensitive enterprise data. Leveraging NVIDIA Confidential Computing, DataEnclave allows AI models from providers including Cohere, CrowdStrike, and Deepgram to operate in secure environments whilst protecting both customer data and AI model intellectual property. The development addresses data privacy challenges in highly regulated sectors such as financial services and healthcare. It ensures sensitive data can interact with advanced AI models whilst remaining within trusted infrastructure, marking a significant step towards a more encrypted and secure AI ecosystem where models are managed alongside data.

Vultr and VAST take AI infrastructure partnership to the next stage. Building on its collaboration through the Vultr Cloud Alliance, Vultr is deepening its work together to help customers tackle the growing infrastructure demands of AI. By combining Vultr's globally available cloud compute and cloud GPU infrastructure with VAST's AI data platform, Vultr is bringing compute and data closer together to support demanding AI workloads - from large-scale training and real-time inference to data-intensive AI pipelines. As AI moves further into production, organizations need infrastructure that can scale with growing models, datasets, and workloads without adding unnecessary complexity. As agentic AI moves into production, the data layer becomes increasingly critical. AI agents need timely access to enterprise information to make informed decisions and take action, while businesses need confidence that access to that data remains controlled, secure, and accountable. Vultr and VAST bring cloud compute, GPUs, and data infrastructure together as a composable foundation for these workloads. Customers can scale each layer according to their requirements while giving AI applications the data availability, responsive access, and enterprise controls needed for production environments. Vultr is excited to continue strengthening its partnership with VAST and building a more powerful foundation for production AI.
