At the heart of this collaboration lies the VAST AI Operating System (AI OS) — a unified platform designed to provide instant access to massive datasets, breakthrough performance, and cost-efficient scalability across the most demanding AI workloads. This powerful foundation allows CoreWeave to deploy VAST seamlessly in any data center, ensuring reliability and performance consistency across diverse customer environments.
“At VAST, we are building the data foundation for the most ambitious AI initiatives in the world,” said Renen Hallak, Founder and CEO of VAST Data. “Our deep integration with CoreWeave reflects a shared vision — to align both business and technical roadmaps to create an AI platform unmatched in today’s market.”
The collaboration goes beyond mere infrastructure — it focuses on enabling next-generation AI development. CoreWeave and VAST are working jointly to deliver sophisticated data services across the full stack, optimizing data pipelines and unlocking advanced design capabilities that model builders require for generative AI, agentic AI, and large-scale training environments.
“The VAST AI Operating System underpins key aspects of how we design and deliver our AI cloud,” said Brian Venturo, Co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer of CoreWeave. “This partnership empowers us to provide the most performant, scalable, and cost-efficient AI infrastructure available today.”
By integrating CoreWeave’s GPU-accelerated compute with VAST’s intelligent data architecture, the companies are redefining how modern AI systems handle continuous learning, real-time inference, and massive data processing. The partnership represents a forward leap toward a unified global data and compute fabric — one that will underpin industries relying on high-performance AI, from autonomous systems to scientific research.
With this strategic alliance, VAST and CoreWeave are not just powering AI — they are rearchitecting its future, ensuring that the data foundation of tomorrow’s intelligent systems is both limitless and resilient.
