VAST Data Powers Smarter, Evolving AI Agents with NVIDIA Data Flywheel
VAST Data, the AI Operating System company, announced today that it is delivering a complete data and compute platform that enables AI intelligence to continuously evolve. The VAST AI OS, combined with NVIDIA AI Enterprise, which includes NeMo microservices that power a data flywheel for continuous model improvement, creates a unified environment where AI pipelines can constantly learn, adapt, and improve. This reference workflow provides a self-optimizing foundation for scalable AI, laying the groundwork for billions of intelligent agents to fine-tune and evolve from their data and experiences.
This solution provides enterprises with a converged software platform for data management, database services, and AI compute orchestration. Additionally, VAST AI OS AgentEngine uniquely shares feedback by providing the critical capability to map the intricate web of agent-data interactions through production logs. This granular traceability allows the flywheel to dissect these multi-step interactions, accurately identifying which specific elements require adjustment to enhance outcomes, accelerating model performance and accuracy at scale.
'AI-powered businesses need thinking machines designed for a future where billions of AI agents learn from their own experiences, fine-tune in real time, and create new possibilities through collaboration,' said Jeff Denworth, Co-Founder of VAST Data. 'By unifying NVIDIA's AI software and hardware technologies within the core of the VAST AI Operating System, we are giving customers the foundation to operationalize continuous improvements in AI intelligence at scale, with the security, governance, and service delivery tools required to manage these intelligent agents and the data they rely upon.'
As AI moves from isolated projects to always-on infrastructure, businesses need systems that evolve in real time with every data point while addressing new security and governance challenges around fine-tuned models, agent interactions, and decentralized data pipelines. This collaboration makes it possible to run continuous, automated AI pipelines – from ingestion to inference to retraining – all managed within the VAST AI Operating System.
Among the first to embrace this strategy is CACEIS, one of Europe's largest asset servicing firms. In collaboration with VAST and NVIDIA, CACEIS is exploring a real-time AI platform concept designed to securely capture, transcribe, and analyze 100% of client meetings. The vision is for the system to instantly generate meeting minutes, surface actionable insights, and deliver anonymized trend data — all seamlessly integrated into their sovereign CRM. With an end-to-end security model at its foundation, the platform is being designed to safeguard client privacy and data integrity while continuously evolving through every interaction.
'AI will be a game-changer, highlighting trends in current needs by analysing meeting reports so we can better serve clients,' said Arnaud Misset, Chief Digital Officer, CACEIS.
Using VAST's AgentEngine that leverages the NVIDIA AI-Q Blueprint, CACEIS is developing a platform proof of concept that would enable AI agents to assist relationship managers in real time and help uncover new business opportunities. Built by NVIDIA NeMo microservices and the NVIDIA data flywheel blueprint, the envisioned CACEIS AI factory would continuously capture data and insights from every customer interaction. These feedback loops are intended to drive ongoing model refinement and training, allowing the system to improve and adapt with each meeting. As AI agents learn from one another and from human counterparts, this concept sets the stage for new ideas, collective intelligence, and enterprise-wide knowledge sharing to take shape.
This capability was showcased during NVIDIA's Kari Briski's presentation at GTC Europe in Paris. Watch the demo replay here.
This collaboration signals a broader shift in enterprise AI, from one-size-fits-all models to dynamic ecosystems of intelligent agents that continuously fine-tune, collaborate, and generate new ideas from their own data and interactions. Managing these agents at scale requires fine-grained security, governance, and access controls to ensure they operate safely and within defined boundaries. It also demands scalable, dynamic infrastructure capable of handling the varied and unpredictable demands of AI agents as they interact with diverse data tools and services. The VAST AI Operating System provides this real-time data infrastructure, along with compute orchestration, QoS tools that enforce fairness as different agents run within the environment, and a security framework to refine intelligence and operationalize AI innovation in a secure, scalable, and adaptive system.
'Data flywheels leverage each interaction with an AI agent to continuously improve system intelligence and value,' said Kari Briski, Vice President of Generative AI Software at NVIDIA. 'CACEIS is an exemplary pioneer with a vision of building an agentic AI data flywheel with NVIDIA and VAST to supercharge productivity for financial services in Europe.'

UAE, US enjoying a ‘powerhouse partnership', says Sultan Al Jaber
Dr. Sultan Bin Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, Managing Director and Group CEO of ADNOC, and Executive Chairman of XRG, called for energy, technology, finance and policy sectors to work in sync to meet the once-in-a-generation investment opportunity of artificial intelligence (AI). Delivering a keynote address in Washington DC at the ninth edition of the Atlantic Council Global Energy Forum to an audience of policymakers and industry leaders, Dr. Al Jaber described AI as the next stage of human evolution and emphasised that meeting its demands will require an equally transformative shift in energy policy, investment and infrastructure. 'The race for AI supremacy is not just about code-it's about gigawatts,' he said. 'Every AI breakthrough consumes more power. And right now, global energy systems are not ready.' He noted that the US alone may require 50-150 gigawatts of new capacity by 2030, dependent on the energy source - equivalent to the total consumption of dozens of major cities. To meet that challenge, Dr. Al Jaber outlined a system-wide roadmap-developed in partnership with XRG, MGX and the Atlantic Council-calling for fast-tracked permitting, modernised grids, and strategic investment in gas, nuclear, and renewables. 'You can't run tomorrow's technology on yesterday's grid,' he said. 'Permitting delays and supply chain bottlenecks are now threats to progress. Policy must help, not hold back.' Dr Al Jaber highlighted that the size of the opportunity is huge and the key to unlocking it is partnership. He explained that this is why the UAE and the US are enjoying a 'powerhouse partnership' across every sector. 'For us, the United States is not just a partner-it's an investment imperative,' Dr. Al Jaber added. 'US companies are among the UAE's largest concession partners, active from upstream to downstream. Currently, the UAE energy sector works with US companies across 18 states and 50 facilities, from gas to chemicals to energy infrastructure and energy solutions.' 'XRG is an anchor partner in the largest LNG facility in Texas. We produce specialty chemicals across the country. And our renewable energy company, Masdar, has developed 5.5GW of operational capacity from coast-to-coast. And we are just getting started. To help harness that ambition, we opened a joint XRG/Masdar office right here in Washington DC.' He highlighted that a single new data centre can consume as much electricity as a city the size of Pittsburgh. 'Meeting this demand is not just a technical challenge - it is a once-in-a-generation investment opportunity. One that requires a system-wide shift, with energy, technology, finance and policy operating in sync,' he said. Dr. Al Jaber argued that 'in the age of hyperscalers, we must hyperscale energy,' calling for reliable baseload sources such as gas and nuclear, backed by renewables, energy storage, and emerging solutions like small modular reactors (SMRs) and fusion. He also advocated for a 'pragmatic pause' on early retirements of existing power plants while expanding nuclear capacity.
