Persistent Systems and DigitalOcean have announced a strategic partnership aimed at making Artificial Intelligence (AI) more accessible, scalable, and secure for enterprises and developers worldwide, combining Persistent’s deep engineering expertise and platform capabilities with DigitalOcean’s robust agentic cloud infrastructure to accelerate AI adoption by delivering cost-effective, growth-oriented AI infrastructure and innovation. As part of this collaboration, Persistent has selected DigitalOcean as its cloud and AI infrastructure provider for its AI-powered platform SASVA™, which “seamlessly integrates code, documentation, architecture and executive summaries and adapts fluidly across a spectrum of workflows and roles” to run AI workloads and customer deployments reliably, cost-efficiently, and at scale on the DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Agentic Cloud, including leveraging high-powered GPUs and support throughout the agent development lifecycle. With enterprises facing rising GPU and infrastructure costs, fragmented agent development ecosystems, and mounting security and compliance concerns, the partnership is designed to address these challenges by offering secure, enterprise-ready AI solutions that help organizations shift from experimentation to production scale while reducing AI infrastructure and operational costs by more than 50% and enabling faster, more predictable AI scaling across industries.

In return, Persistent will use SASVA and its engineering expertise to build modern AI stacks that enhance the capabilities, performance and efficiency of DigitalOcean’s next-generation cloud platform for AI workloads, accelerating DigitalOcean’s AI offerings and roadmap. “As enterprises move from experimenting with AI to embedding it across their core operations, success will hinge on how effectively they scale with speed, trust and measurable impact. Our partnership with DigitalOcean exemplifies this shift, combining our AI engineering expertise and SASVA™ platform with DigitalOcean’s agentic cloud to help clients operationalize AI with confidence,” said Sandeep Kalra, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director at Persistent. “DigitalOcean’s agentic cloud delivers the infrastructure, platform, and services that make AI accessible, scalable, and cost-effective. Partnering with Persistent expands these capabilities to more enterprise use cases by integrating our AI foundation with SASVA’s deterministic engineering. Together, we are accelerating the use of AI solutions at scale,” added Paddy Srinivasan, CEO of DigitalOcean.
