Elastic & AWS partner to enable secure generative AI apps
Elastic has entered into a five-year strategic collaboration agreement with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to support organisations in building secure, generative AI-powered applications with greater speed and reduced complexity. The agreement is focused on joint product integrations and go-to-market initiatives that aim to enable customers to transition into AI-native enterprises more efficiently. It brings together Elastic's Search AI Platform and AWS services, with a particular emphasis on facilitating work in highly regulated sectors such as the public sector and financial services. Under this agreement, the companies will invest in technical integrations, including support for Amazon Bedrock and Elastic Cloud Serverless, to help customers drive AI innovation. The collaboration is designed to allow customers to leverage generative AI features by making use of high-performing foundation models available through Amazon Bedrock. It also offers support for migrating Elasticsearch workloads from on-premise data centres to Elastic Cloud on AWS, ongoing cost efficiencies for users of Elastic Cloud Serverless, and enhanced agentic AI capabilities through work on Model Context Protocol (MCP) and agent-to-agent interoperability. Commenting on the collaboration, Ash Kulkarni, Chief Executive Officer at Elastic, said: "As the speed of generative AI adoption accelerates, search has become increasingly relevant. Our collaboration with AWS and integration with Amazon Bedrock brings the power of search directly to generative AI for a host of use cases, including cybersecurity and observability. Together, we're enabling developers to build intelligent, context-aware applications that leverage their own data securely and at scale." Ruba Borno, Vice President, Specialists and Partners at AWS, said: "Together with Elastic, we're helping customers transform how they leverage data and AI to drive innovation. This strategic collaboration delivers particular value for highly regulated industries requiring robust data protection, while our shared commitment to standards like Model Context Protocols enables seamless agent-to-agent interactions. Available through AWS Marketplace, customers will be able to quickly deploy solutions that combine Elastic's powerful search capabilities with Amazon Bedrock on the secure, global AWS infrastructure, helping them build compliant, intelligent applications that accelerate their AI journey." The collaboration is already producing results for organisations such as Generis and BigID. Mariusz Pala, Chief Technology Officer at Generis, said: "The strength of the Elastic and AWS partnership has been fundamental to Generis's mission of delivering secure, compliant, and intelligent solutions for clients in highly regulated industries. By deploying Elastic on AWS, we've reduced average search times by 1000% and cut the time to produce complex, compliance-driven documents from two weeks to just two days, providing our clients real-time insights while upholding the highest standards of data integrity and control." Avior Malkukian, Head of DevOps at BigID, said: "Leveraging Elastic Cloud on AWS has been transformative for BigID. We've achieved a 120x acceleration in query performance, enabling real-time data insights that were previously unattainable. The scalability and flexibility of Elastic Cloud on AWS allow us to efficiently manage vast and complex data landscapes, ensuring our customers can swiftly discover and protect their sensitive information. Elastic Cloud on AWS is a powerful combination that allows us to deliver innovative features, reduce operational costs, and maintain our leadership in data security and compliance." The integration of Elastic's AI-powered solutions with AWS services includes features such as Elastic AI Assistant, Attack Discovery, Automatic Import, Automatic Migration, Automatic Troubleshoot, and AI Playground, all of which interact with Large Language Models through Amazon Bedrock. These integrations help customers to conduct root cause analysis more quickly, synthesise complex data signals, automate data onboarding, and simplify the migration process. Natural language and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)-powered workflows are designed to enable teams to interact with their data more intuitively and support faster decision-making. Elastic's relationship with AWS has been recognised within the AWS Partner Network. In December 2024, Elastic was named AWS Global Generative AI Infrastructure and Data Partner of the Year, and it was among the first group of AWS software partners acknowledged with the AWS Generative AI Competency. The company has also received AWS competency designations for the government and education sectors earlier this year.

Blue Owl Invests Additional $750M in AI Data Center Joint Venture
On May 28, Blue Owl Capital Inc. (NYSE:OWL), Chirisa Technology Parks (CTP), and PowerHouse Data Centers have finalized a $750 million transaction, marking a key phase in their $5 billion joint venture focused on AI/HPC data center development. Initially launched in August 2024, this partnership aims to establish turnkey AI infrastructure, supporting CoreWeave and other hyperscale and enterprise customers. A financial planner pointing to a graph of investment trends, demonstrating the company's expertise. The partnership is currently developing a 350-acre campus in Chesterfield, VA, where construction began in 2024 for an initial 120MW of new critical facilities. These facilities will support CoreWeave, one of the fastest-growing cloud infrastructure providers for AI workloads. Delivery is scheduled for 2025 and 2026. The campus features cutting-edge design standards. It is built specifically for dense GPU clusters and advanced computing technologies required for large-scale AI customers. It integrates CTP's proprietary 'direct-on-chip' liquid cooling design, which is almost twice as energy efficient as traditional air-cooled systems. 'This is another pivotal milestone in our $5 billion strategic partnership with CTP and PowerHouse,' said Marc Zahr, Global Head of Real Assets at Blue Owl. 'We're delivering on our vision to create foundational infrastructure for the next generation of AI-native cloud companies like CoreWeave.' Despite its strong market potential, the partnership faces investment risks such as high capital expenditure, an extended project timeline stretching into 2026, and dependence on CoreWeave's continued success in AI adoption. However, its ability to efficiently deliver turnkey solutions positions it well for sustained long-term growth. Chirisa Technology Parks (CTP) specializes in AI/HPC data center deployments, managing over 500,000 SF of built capacity with a 1.6 GW pipeline in development. PowerHouse Data Centers, owned by American Real Estate Partners (AREP), leads next-gen hyperscale development, rapidly expanding across six major U.S. markets. Blue Owl Capital Inc. (NYSE:OWL) is an American alternative investment management firm. It offers flexible, long-term capital solutions through diversified platforms such as direct lending, credit strategies, GP strategic capital, and real assets. The company works with institutional investors, financial advisors, and alternative asset managers, providing tailored financing for mid-market companies and other borrowers. While we acknowledge the potential of Blue Owl Capital Inc. (NYSE:OWL) as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than OWL and that has 100x upside potential, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.
