VMware’s top executives revealed how the company is aiding clients and partners in adopting a strategically sound, cloud-intelligent approach to multi-cloud environments and digital overhaul.

Addressing the challenges posed by general AI, VMware introduced ‘Private AI’ as a solution. This architectural strategy strikes a balance between harnessing AI’s commercial benefits and meeting organizational privacy and compliance demands. VMware, in collaboration with leading partners like IBM, Intel, and NVIDIA, is making Private AI accessible to enterprises, offering an enlarged ecosystem that provides greater flexibility and options to customers and partners.

This collaboration allows for the modernization of existing databases and the creation of cutting-edge AI applications using this enterprise-grade, PostgreSQL-compatible database.
