About VAST Data

The AI Operating System company

VAST Data is the AI Operating System company, powering the next generation of systems with a unified infrastructure stack purpose-built to unlock AI’s potential. The VAST AI OS consolidates foundational data, compute, and agentic execution into one platform, enabling organizations to deploy AI agents, reason over real-time data, and automate workflows at scale.

Built on VAST’s breakthrough DASE architecture, the VAST AI OS provides the global fabric for reasoning AI. VAST Data’s mission is to provide the AI Operating System that powers the next generation of intelligent systems at global scale.

Partnership

From the data path to the application layer

Lablup and VAST Data have validated the integration of Backend.AI and the VAST AI OS together. VAST DataSpace links on-prem, edge, and cloud into one global namespace that streams massive datasets to GPU clusters without latency bottlenecks, while Backend.AI virtualizes and schedules those GPU resources across workloads.

Instead of assembling storage and compute separately, enterprises build production AI on a single integrated stack — from the data path to the application layer.

The AI infrastructure stack by Lablup and VAST Data

Backend.AI
Backend.AI

Sokovan

Container orchestrator with cluster-scale scheduling that allocates GPU resources to workloads

Container-level GPU Virtualization

Fractional GPU technology that splits a single GPU and pools many into one resource

Storage Proxy

Storage integration layer that connects high-performance storage directly into session data paths

VAST Data
VAST AI OS

Unified data services

Unifies files and objects, database analytics, and event-driven compute in one platform

DASE

Disaggregated Shared-Everything: compute and storage scale independently, delivering all-flash speed at archive cost

VAST DataSpace

One global namespace across on-prem, edge, and cloud, streaming massive datasets straight to GPU clusters

VAST Cosmos
Ecosystem

VAST Cosmos

VAST Cosmos is a global community of developers, builders, customers, and partners advancing AI innovation. By connecting technology providers, cloud platforms, systems integrators, and AI practitioners through technical collaboration, validated solutions, and shared resources, Cosmos accelerates AI adoption and fosters an open ecosystem where organizations can build, deploy, and scale AI together.

The VAST AI OS meets Lablup’s Backend.AI — completing the infrastructure for production AI.

Enterprises are looking for a simpler, more consistent way to deploy production AI, backed by validated integrations they can trust. Together with Lablup, the VAST AI OS is helping customers accelerate AI-ready deployments from the data path to the application layer.

Joongi Kim
CTO, Lablup

The performance of large-scale AI workloads depends as much on storage I/O throughput as on GPU compute. Integrating Backend.AI with the VAST AI OS simplifies the data path of training and inference pipelines and reduces GPU idle time. Together with VAST Data, Lablup is building production AI infrastructure with no bottlenecks from storage to GPU.
