Armada, a leader in distributed edge and remote infrastructure, announced it has joined the VAST Cosmos Community, a global community of developers, builders, and experts in innovative AI solutions, through strategic collaboration with VAST Data, the AI Operating System company, to deliver a new generation of private, distributed, and global AI factories. Together, the companies provide an integrated solution combining Armada Galleon modular data centers and the Armada Edge Platform with the VAST Operating System, enabling organizations to build, operate, and scale AI factories wherever data is created while maintaining sovereignty, security, and operational consistency.
Modular data centers provide a powerful and flexible foundation for AI workloads. Realizing a true AI factory requires capabilities that extend beyond infrastructure to encompass a unified data fabric, orchestration software, and lifecycle management that operate consistently across locations. Through the Cosmos Partner Program, Armada and VAST deliver this complete stack, transforming deployable infrastructure into a globally coordinated AI production system.
With Armada’s Galleon, a modular data center purpose built for high-density AI workloads, customers can deploy AI factory infrastructure in remote, disconnected, or regulated environments. The VAST AI OS is available directly within the Galleon, delivering enterprise-grade, high-performance storage and data services as part of the integrated AI factory stack. This ensures that AI workloads deployed in the field have immediate access to scalable, disaggregated data infrastructure without requiring separate integration or centralized dependency.
The Armada Edge Platform (AEP) delivers GPU-as-a-Service capabilities, while providing the operational software foundation to manage, orchestrate, and operate AI workloads consistently across all AI factory locations. AEP is integrated with the VAST DataSpace, a global namespace,…
