Discussion: VAST Data Unveils the Operating System for the Thinking Machine

Organizations can now easily deploy, operate and observe agentic pipelines; leverage pre-built agents provided by VAST Data; connect, collaborate and learn to program workflows at global events

As AI redefines the fabric of business and society, the industry again finds itself at the dawn of a new computing paradigm – one where trillions of intelligent agents will reason, communicate, and act across a global grid of millions of GPUs that are woven across edge deployments, AI factories and cloud data centers. To make this world accessible, programmable, and operational at extreme scale, a new generation of intelligent systems requires a new software foundation.

This is the moment VAST Data was built for.

The launch of the VAST AI Operating System comes as the company has reached a historic milestone: the fastest path to $2 billion in cumulative bookings of any data company in history. With nearly 5x year-over-year growth in the first quarter of this year compared to last, and a cashflow-positive business model, VAST’s hypergrowth reflects the market’s demand for an operating system purpose-built to operationalize AI at unprecedented scale.

Introducing the VAST AgentEngine

This year, AI models and agents now come to life within the VAST AI Operating System. In 2024, VAST previewed the VAST InsightEngine – a service that extracts context from unstructured data using AI embedding tools. If the VAST InsightEngine prepares data for AI using AI, VAST AgentEngine is how AI now comes to life with data – an auto-scaling AI agent deployment runtime that equips users with a low-code environment to build intelligent workflows, select reasoning models, define agent tools, and operationalize reasoning.
