VAST Data launches AI operating system - https://t.co/0TXTXBFWnE
🚀 Onward to the age of Thinking Machines! 🚀 #TheFutureIsVAST

[Michelle Sanchez @The_SanchezShow]

Monumental day! '@VAST_Data #AI OS' built from silicon up for autonomous agents & exabyte-scale wrkds. In #agentic AI era -where machines reason, decide, act in realtime- legacy stacks simply can’t keep up. This launch redefines computing & lets organizations move at #gpu speed

[Jeff Denworth @JeffDenworth]

Quoting myself... "One of the true superpowers of VAST is a lack of concern for market categorization. 20 years from now, we will look back on today’s technology and wonder why everything was so complicated."

Throughout history, operating systems have defined the democratization of new hardware platforms and have enabled applications to thrive. Today, @VAST_Data graduates to the next phase of its evolution... by introducing the Operating System for Thinking Machines. Data > Context > Action.

Re; the @SemiAnalysis_ report... What does it say about the hyperscalers when 100% of the Neocloud Giants have standardized on @VAST_Data and the old clouds have standardized on 20 year old technology? If you need to build a professional AI cloud that scales and delights customers, today and not 20 years ago... choose VAST.

Come visit us at booth#733 and learn how @VAST_Data's high-performance, scalable solutions are redefining #AI and #HPC workflows. From optimizing massive AI models to streamlining data pipelines & accelerating scientific research

[Jeff Denworth @JeffDenworth]

Today, I want to call special attention to a new @VAST_Data Platform capability that lays testament to the awesome power of VAST's Disaggregated, Shared Everything (DASE) architecture.

Almost every data lake, data warehouse and event streaming platform is built upon the shared-nothing architecture popularized by the Google File System in 2003. The east-west traffic created by shared-nothing clusters has made transactional I/O nearly impossible to scale... internal communication overwhelms clusters as they scale. This has created data silos in data pipelines... where events are first captured in a transactional bus and then shipped to some data lake/house. Silos = lost analytics opportunities.

VAST's new embarrassingly-parallel architecture eliminates east-west traffic, therefore making it possible to ingest real-time events, database transactions, cross-table change data capture at any level of scale... add servers, scale data services.

Today we bring an end to compromise.

- Stream real-time events directly into your data warehouse, at up to 100s of millions of events per second
- Topics are stored as tables, where new tabular data is columnarized once it rolls off the VAST Data Platform write buffer
- Events can be analyzed and correlated against all of the tables in the VAST DataBase using database sorts and indexes... giving customers a unified analytics environment that eliminates the divide between real-time and batch data analytics

Today, we essentially eliminate the need for a event streaming platform because VAST's DataBase handles streaming and analytics on the same data at any scale. We're not cutting into a new market category, we're eliminating the category altogether.

We’d like to share the story of VAST and @xai.

VAST Data is honored to be the data platform behind xAI's Colossus cluster in Memphis, fueling the data processing and model training that powers this groundbreaking initiative. Colossus, featuring over 100,000 @nvidia GPUs, is a testament to what’s possible when #AI innovators collaborate.

Since the inception of the Colossus cluster, VAST has been proud and grateful to see xAI run their data and workloads on the VAST Data Platform.

Together, we’re here for every challenge, pushing the boundaries to achieve what has never been done before. Being part of such a monumental achievement is inspiring, and we’re excited to continue on this journey.
