Earlier this month World Wide Technology (WWT) was named VAST Data’s Partner of the Year. To me this announcement represents that best-in-class partnerships can take individual companies to great heights together. It’s also clear that the AI era is upon us, and partnerships are critical to VAST’s success.
As we grow into a world where AI begins to make an impact on how companies operate, partners like WWT are helping customers make the transition through their expertise and capabilities. In December WWT announced an investment of $500M to drive AI adoption for its customers. The company’s Advanced Technology Center (ATC) and AI Proving Ground allow customers to compare, test and train AI solutions accelerating their AI adoption. WWT is leading the charge, and VAST is excited to partner with WWT along this journey.

VAST is the AI data platform company. The VAST Data Platform was built from the ground up for AI. WWT has recognized this and we are proud to be a WWT Select Partner. VAST is represented in the ATC and is one of a handful of partners in the AI Proving Ground. Whether it’s VAST for high-performance workloads, cyber resiliency or AI, WWT has the expertise to help architect and deploy VAST both on-prem or in the cloud.
