VAST Data Integrates with NVIDIA AI-Q for Enterprise AI
Home » Top stories » VAST Data Integrates with NVIDIA AI-Q for Enterprise AI VAST Data, the AI data platform company, has announced the integration of the VAST Data Platform with NVIDIA AI-Q. This collaboration delivers a unified foundation for building, accelerating, and scaling AI agents across enterprise environments. The company revealed that pairing its platform with the NVIDIA AI-Q Blueprint enhances capabilities for real-time multimodal data access and intelligent agent orchestration. The integration supports enterprise-scale AI systems. A live demonstration of this collaboration was showcased during NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang's keynote at COMPUTEX. The demo highlighted how AI agents can access and reason over structured and multimodal data in real time. The NVIDIA AI-Q Blueprint, featured in the keynote, provides a reference implementation for rapid metadata extraction. It also supports heterogeneous connectivity between agents, tools, and data. This simplifies the creation of agentic AI query engines with transparency and traceability. VAST reported that the integration brings together NVIDIA Blackwell accelerated computing, AI-Q, and VAST's unified platform. It combines database, compute, and data services to enable intelligent agent orchestration with unprecedented speed and scale. Jeff Denworth, Co-Founder at VAST Data, noted the shift in infrastructure needs in the agentic era. He stated that enterprises need immediate and unrestricted access to data for smarter decision-making. By embedding NVIDIA AI-Q, the platform is designed to meet these demands with real-time, multimodal intelligence and dynamic pipelines. With this integration, enterprises gain real-time, high-throughput access to multimodal data, including: Images, videos, chat, email, and documents Structured data from ERP, CRM, and data warehouses Using NVIDIA NeMo Retriever, the platform extracts and reranks relevant data before passing it to advanced reasoning models. This secure, AI-native pipeline transforms raw data into actionable insights. Justin Boitano, Vice President of Enterprise AI at NVIDIA, emphasized that AI-driven data platforms are key for operationalizing sophisticated agentic AI. He said that the partnership with VAST enables faster access to insights from business data. VAST and NVIDIA also offer several enterprise-grade benefits: High-speed, low-latency data access at petabyte to exabyte scale Real-time agent optimization with NVIDIA Agent Intelligence toolkit Global data discoverability with VAST's unified namespace Privacy-preserving integration and fine-grained access controls Together, the VAST Data Platform and NVIDIA AI-Q aim to empower enterprises to build intelligent, multi-agent systems with full observability and governance.

EY and NVIDIA expand partnership to deploy AI agents
Accounting and consulting firm EY has expanded collaboration with NVIDIA to develop and deploy the Agentic Platform, leveraging the full NVIDIA AI stack. The initiative aims to enable real-time event response, adapt to regulatory changes, and support smarter financial and risk decision-making. The Agentic Platform, built on NVIDIA AI Enterprise and the new AI-Q Blueprint, AI-Q, will integrate NVIDIA's private AI reasoning models with human expertise. This hybrid approach is aimed at boosting productivity through the use of AI agents. Key components of the platform include the EY Responsible AI Frameworks, Agentic Framework, Model Catalog, Model Development Suite, Deploy Anywhere capability, and Domain and Sector AI Agent Solutions. The initial rollout will integrate 150 AI agents to assist 80,000 EY professionals, enabling the completion of more than three million tax compliance tasks and streamlining 30 million tax processes each year, EY said. The platform will assist tax professionals in tasks such as data collection, document analysis, and tax compliance for both income and indirect taxes. The deployment will commence with core business areas, with plans to extend into tailored AI agent solutions for various sectors, including life sciences, manufacturing, and financial services. This initiative builds on previous collaborations between EY and NVIDIA, including AI solutions for the telecommunications sector. Furthermore, risk agents will work alongside risk professionals to introduce new AI-native services. One such service, a third-party risk management agent, will assist clients in managing risk more comprehensively while significantly increasing productivity. EY Growth and Innovation global managing partner Raj Sharma: 'Agentic AI is fundamentally transforming business operations through automation and streamlined processes. This expanded alliance with NVIDIA will help EY clients capitalise on the opportunities through curated insights across tax, risk and finance. 'Having actionable insights powered by AI technology will impact whether businesses succeed or fall behind in this industry and our goal is to provide clients with the necessary tools and strategies to navigate the new AI era effectively.' In February 2025, EY US teamed up with Zscaler to counter hurdles linked to network architecture through cloud-delivered services. "EY and NVIDIA expand partnership to deploy AI agents" was originally created and published by International Accounting Bulletin, a GlobalData owned brand.
