I’m happy to share that VAST has been recognized as the Data Management Company of the Year in the 2025 Data Breakthrough Awards.
Following last year’s wins with Data Breakthrough for Overall Data Technology Company of the Year and Best Deep Learning Platform, this award is an acknowledgment of our momentum and impact built over the past year that has solidified VAST’s position at the heart of the modern data stack. Key highlights from 2024 include:
Founding Cosmos, the global community for collaboration, innovation, and exchanging ideas around the future of data and AI
Collaborating with NVIDIA to launch the VAST InsightEngine, a new approach to enterprise RAG and the first solution to securely ingest, process, and retrieve all enterprise data (files, objects, tables, and streams) for real-time insight extraction
Expanding partnerships with enterprise AI drivers like Deloitte, ServiceNow, and the National Hockey League, as well as AI ecosystem builders like Arista, Cisco, and Equinix
Capturing prestigious industry recognition, from the Forbes Cloud 100 and America’s Best Startups to the Leader quadrant in the Gartner MQ
We’ve always said the future belongs to those who can unlock the full value of their data - without complexity, without compromise, and at any scale. To everyone in the VAST community helping us reshape what’s possible with data, this recognition is yours too. Thank you for your continued partnership and support.
VAST has become the de facto standard for the data platform of AI clouds/GPU clouds. That’s no surprise from a company that continues to deliver simple solutions to make data more meaningful, helping organizations unlock both intelligence and utility.
