VAST Data has launched a partner program that combines reseller, services, systems integrator, technology alliance, distributor and cloud partner ecosystems under a single framework.
VAST said the Cosmos Partner Program is designed to provide a consistent structure for how partners build, validate, sell and deliver solutions on the VAST AI Operating System across data centre, cloud and edge environments.
It offers aligned training, enablement, governance and resources through a centralised partner portal, while formalising multiple routes to market.
The program includes a range of categories that partners can fit into, including resellers, global systems integrators, consulting or advisory partners and authorised services partners.
There are also distributor, manufacturer, cloud and software/hardware technology partners.
VAST Data global technology alliances vice president John Mao said the Cosmos community was created to support AI practitioners in organisations.
“With the addition of the Cosmos Partner Program, we’re expanding that mission by giving technology, cloud, and channel partners a unified framework to build and validate solutions, differentiate service offerings, and bring the VAST AI Operating System to customers – across the data centre, cloud, and at the edge,” he said.
VAST Data's global partner organisation vice president John Cedillo added that partners are looking for clarity and consistency in how they engage with the company.
“Now Cosmos brings that to life with a single program that supports a clear set of pathways to take VAST to market, and the assets that drive execution – structured onboarding, tiered benefits, and a partner portal that connects training, deal registration, and joint go-to-market into one repeatable motion,” he said.
