When it comes to technology, the founders of VAST Data can be described as “prescient.” In 2015, they looked at the problem of data management from a unique perspective.
They did not want to call their company VAST “storage” but VAST “Data” because the problem they tried to solve was not the amount of storage but how to get instant and fast access to that data.
The wave they rode was a combination of nVidia investing in graphic processing units and flash storage becoming more affordable. The result: VAST Data has grown to be valued at over nine billion dollars.
During the interview, Randy Hayes details the value proposition of this innovation for federal projects. Their first customer was NIH, and they have built on that reputation ever since.
Randy Hayes mentions that the current Zero Trust initiative begins with identification. Rapid, accurate authentication rests on fast access to data.
Further, we have seen a resurgence in many organizations' migration from the cloud to on-prem solutions, mostly due to rising cloud costs and data sovereignty issues. VAST Data can provide efficient and quick ways to manage this data transfer.
Innovation, dropping chip set prices, and understanding federal problems all allow VAST Data to assist federal agencies in accomplishing ambitious goals.
If you want to learn more, VAST Data will attend the Nvidia GTC conference on March 17th in San Jose, California.
