VAST Data Launches PolicyEngine, TuningEngine, GPU Stack

VAST Data announced new infrastructure products this week at its VAST Forward conference, unveiling PolicyEngine, TuningEngine, and an NVIDIA-collaborated GPU-accelerated stack including CNode-X. PolicyEngine provides infrastructure-level guardrails with inline redaction and tamper-proof audit logs, TuningEngine manages on-prem fine-tuning workflows, and CNode-X integrates NVIDIA libraries to accelerate vector search and inference; rollouts continue through 2026.
Key Points
- 1Announces PolicyEngine, TuningEngine, and NVIDIA-certified CNode-X for GPU-accelerated data and agents
- 2Addresses enterprise trust, auditability, and secure fine-tuning across agent workflows and data access
- 3Enables inline data redaction, tamper-proof audit logs, and on-prem fine-tuning within VAST clusters
Scoring Rationale
Official product launches and NVIDIA collaboration drive high impact, limited by incremental innovation and primarily enterprise-focused scope.
