Moving sensitive data to public AI models is a costly, risky compromise. The true enterprise differentiator lies in scaling trusted, autonomous agents for complex workflows—without sacrificing privacy or succumbing to public cloud "token traps." Discover how Cloudera achieves sovereign AI by bringing high-performance AI directly to your data, whether in hybrid clouds, private infrastructure, or air-gapped data centers.
What You Will Learn:
- Private, Cost-Predictable Model Serving: Securely host models behind your firewall with Cloudera AI Inference service, lowering TCO compared to public APIs.
- Fast-Tracked Agentic Innovation: Rapidly scale autonomous workflows with low-code Cloudera Agent Studio, ensuring safe interaction with production systems.
- Centralized AI Governance: Manage, monitor, and route AI usage via a unified control plane that eliminates "shadow AI" and ensures strict compliance.
Join us to see how a data-to-AI strategy minimizes risk, lowers TCO, maximizes operational sovereignty, and accelerates production-grade enterprise intelligence.
Many companies treat all AI applications the same -- all as LLMs that require GPUs. But many AI workloads don't need LLMs and don't need GPUs. Join us and AMD to learn how as we talk about powering your AI applications with more cost-effective and more readily available AMD EPYC CPUs.
The next frontier of data infrastructure is not just a lakehouse that stores more data — it is a platform that understands more, automates more, and federates context across every boundary to feed your agents. In this session, learn the three pillars of the intelligent lakehouse and how they work together to deliver a complete, governed, 360-degree context layer that makes AI agents more reliable.
With multimodal intelligence — you’ll see how to parse, extract, and vectorize unstructured data, and unify it with your business data. Take a peek inside the agentic lakehouse — how AI-driven optimizations make your platform continuously performant and always optimized for costs. And finally, learn how Apache Iceberg, Trino, and our connectors with Salesforce, ServiceNow, and SAP power true interoperability and federated access for context 360. Discover data anywhere, access data from anywhere, share data products, and power your agents anywhere in the cloud, at the edge, or even on premises, giving you complete freedom to choose the architectures, tools, models, and applications that fit your business today and in the future.
Enterprise AI demands more than powerful models and GPUs. It requires a data foundation that can continuously support analytics, retrieval, inference, and agentic AI without the complexity of fragmented storage and data movement. In this session, learn how Cloudera and VAST Data combine enterprise data services with an AI-native data platform to create a unified foundation for AI. We'll explore how organizations can maximize GPU utilization, reduce operational complexity, eliminate unnecessary data movement, improve AI infrastructure efficiency, reduce TCO and accelerate the journey from analytics to production AI.
Enterprise AI success starts with the right foundation—not just the right model. As organizations scale from AI pilots to production agents, they need to transform enterprise data into trusted intelligence while running AI wherever their data resides.
Join Cloudera and NVIDIA to learn how hybrid data platforms, accelerated data processing, open models, and NVIDIA AI software come together to power secure, scalable agentic AI. Learn how an optimized AI stack - from data and models to CPUs, GPUs, networking, and secure computing - enables enterprise to build and scale intelligent agents across on-premises and cloud environments.
Gain inspiration and insights into how leading organizations are building the foundation for the next generation of enterprise AI.
