VAST Partners with Deloitte to Scale AI for the Enterprise
The AI landscape is evolving rapidly, and Deloitte and VAST Data have joined forces to deliver enterprise class adoption. From business strategies to cutting-edge technologies, this collaboration has the potential to bring transformative value to enterprises worldwide. Why is this one to watch? With Deloitte’s deep history of guiding enterprise IT strategy with clients and VAST’s disruptive architecture fueled by new enterprise inference focused solutions, the duo has the right mix of expertise and innovation to make a splash.
In a recent conversation with TechArena, Rick Scurfield, Chief Revenue Officer of VAST Data, and Stephen Brown, AI and Data Managing Director of Deloitte, discussed this collaboration and its impact on the next wave of AI growth. With 2025 and 2026 projected as the "years of scaling enterprise AI," they customers moving past the early phase of AI that has been centered around experimentation, proofs of concept, and business cases to transition to scaling.
This will require robust, secure, and efficient AI infrastructure, leading to the integration of data-driven business value and AI-powered outcomes. The goal is not just to deploy AI in isolated systems, but to ensure that AI can drive business value across multiple functions in the enterprise. As the two leaders explained, AI’s potential is truly realized when it operates across the business as a whole—transforming processes, improving decision-making, and, ultimately, creating new avenues for growth.
Central to this transformation is the integration of data security, risk management, and auditability. As Stephen pointed out, AI applications process enormous amounts of data from both internal and external sources. This data needs to be secured, monitored, and easily auditable at every stage. VAST excels at providing a solution that ensures data integrity, security, and full transparency to the operator. In an era where data breaches and compliance are top concerns for every organization, this ability to deliver a secure and auditable environment is invaluable.
While the collaboration around security is alone enough to turn enterprise heads, Deloitte and VAST are working together to leverage VAST technology for all of its potential. Powered by NVIDIA GPUs, VAST’s advanced data platform enables enterprises to ingest and process massive amounts of data efficiently. This paves the way for an upcoming generation of agentic computing capable of driving significant business value through improved process automation and smart decision-making.
So what’s the TechArena take? If we were looking at massive scale AI inference adoption and coming agentic workflow integration, this partnership has great potential to add significant value. Deloitte is well positioned to engage with customers on the ground, ensuring that the right workloads are handled effectively. At the same time, VAST’s continuous innovation, which we are notable fans of at TechArena, delivers tailored, scalable solutions to meet the ever-changing demands of the AI landscape which will grow and evolve at the pace of AI. And with uncertainty driven up by the rate of AI change, engaging with these vendors provides some much needed risk-mitigation. We are excited to learn more in the months ahead.
