Some things are worth repeating.
We’re proud to share that VAST has once again been named “Deep Learning Company of the Year” by the AI Breakthrough Awards. This back-to-back win comes on the heels of VAST’s inclusion in the CNBC Disruptor 50 and at a moment when deep learning is evolving from experimental innovation to scaled deployment. VAST is at the heart of that transformation.
VAST has become the operating system for the AI era, bringing together storage, compute, and data intelligence into a single, unified platform. What began as a bold reimagining of data infrastructure has matured into the foundation powering today’s most ambitious AI initiatives.
From frontier model builders and AI-native cloud providers to enterprises industrializing AI, a growing number of industry leaders are standardizing on VAST to drive large-scale training and inference. Our architecture eliminates the traditional friction between performance, scale, and simplicity, delivering the data agility that deep learning demands.
Thank you to our customers, partners, and the team at Data Breakthrough for the recognition, and for helping us redefine what’s possible in deep learning.
We are quickly accelerating to where AI permeates every aspect of business. However, traditional infrastructure was never designed for this. Stitching together databases, storage systems, streaming platforms, and compute engines creates friction that delays AI adoption. The VAST AI Operating System is a breakthrough approach to data-intensive computing, serving as the comprehensive software infrastructure required to make AI computing easier, more scalable, and more efficient. We’re so pleased to recognize VAST as our ‘Deep Learning Company of the Year’ for 2025! - Steve Johansson, Managing Director, AI Breakthrough
