Cloudera Data Services Brings Private AI to the Data Center
Cloudera removes barriers to
AI adoption by allowing organizations to run AI on their own data behind their
firewall India, August 2025:
Cloudera, the only company bringing AI
to data anywhere, today announced the latest release of Cloudera Data Services,
bringing Private AI on premises and giving enterprises secure, GPU-accelerated
generative AI capabilities behind their firewall. With built-in governance and
hybrid portability, organizations can now build and scale their own sovereign
data cloud in their own data center, eliminating security concerns. Cloudera is
the only vendor that delivers the full data lifecycle with the same
cloud-native services on-prem and in the public cloud. Concerns about keeping
sensitive data and intellectual property secure is a key factor for what holds
back AI adoption from enterprises across industries. According to
Accenture, 77% of organizations lack the foundational data and AI security
practices needed to safeguard critical models, data pipelines, and cloud
infrastructure. Cloudera directly addresses the biggest security and
intellectual property risks of enterprise AI, allowing customers to accelerate
their journey from prototype to production from months to weeks. This release brings the
benefits of Cloudera Data Services to an organization’s data center. Users can
significantly reduce infrastructure costs and streamline data lifecycles,
boosting data team productivity. They can also accelerate workload deployment,
enhance security by automating complex tasks, and achieve faster time to value
for AI deployment. In addition to improved practitioner experience and
enterprise readiness, users now get cloud-native agility behind their firewall,
allowing them to scale efficiently without sacrificing security. As part of this release, both
Cloudera AI Inference Service and AI
Studios are now available in the data center. Both of these tools are
designed to tackle the biggest barriers to enterprise AI adoption and have
previously been available in cloud-only. This launch empowers organizations to
accelerate AI adoption and securely build and run GenAI applications within the
security of their own data center to keep sensitive intellectual property
behind their firewall. Here’s how each offering delivers value on premises: According to an independent
"Total
Economic Impact™" (or TEI) study conducted by Forrester Consulting and
commissioned by Cloudera, a composite organization representative of
interviewed customers who adopted Cloudera Data Services on premises saw an 80%
faster time-to-value for workload deployment, a 20% increase in productivity
for data practitioners and platform teams, and overall savings of 35% from the
modern cloud-native architecture. The study also highlighted significant
operational efficiency gains, with some organizations improving hardware
utilization from 30% to 70% and reporting they needed between 25% to more than
50% less capacity after modernizing. “Historically, enterprises
have been forced to cobble together complex, fragile DIY solutions to run their
AI on-premises,” said Sanjeev Mohan, industry analyst. “Today the urgency to
adopt AI is undeniable, but so are the concerns around data security. What
enterprises need are solutions that streamline AI adoption, boost productivity,
and do so without compromising on security.” “Cloudera Data Services
On-Premises delivers a true cloud-native experience on-premises, providing
agility and efficiency without sacrificing security or control,” said Leo
Brunnick, Cloudera’s Chief Product Officer. “This release is a significant step
forward in data modernization, moving from monolithic clusters to a suite of
agile, containerized applications.”: "BNI is proud to be an
early adopter of Cloudera’s AI Inference service," stated Toto Prasetio,
Chief Information Officer of BNI. "This technology provides the essential
infrastructure to securely and efficiently expand our generative AI initiatives,
all while adhering to Indonesia's dynamic regulatory environment. It marks a
significant advancement in our mission to offer smarter, quicker, and more
dependable digital banking solutions to the people of Indonesia." This product is being demoed
at Cloudera’s annual series of data and AI conferences, EVOLVE25,
starting this week in Singapore. Register for EVOLVE25
