Scality and WEKA have expanded their partnership in France with a new joint customer support agreement. This provides French organizations with a single national point of contact for sales and first-line technical support. The agreement, announced on July 7 ahead of the RAISE Summit 2026 in Paris, aims to simplify the implementation and ongoing operations for companies deploying AI infrastructure.
Under the agreement, Scality will distribute the joint solution to French customers, provide local front-line support and drive sales of the product across France. The companies are targeting enterprise customers, government agencies, and AI developers who require high-performance storage combined with cyber resiliency and data sovereignty.
integrated solution
The integration platform combines WEKA NeuralMesh and Scality Autonomous Data Infrastructure (ADI). WEKA positions NeuralMesh as a high-performance AI storage and contextual memory platform designed to increase storage throughput and maintain high GPU utilization during AI training and inference workloads. Scality ADI complements the platform by providing autonomous data management, cyber resiliency, and sovereign data control across the data lifecycle, from active datasets to exabyte-scale long-term object storage.
The extended support agreement is based on a jointly validated architecture that the companies announced on February 24, 2026, combining WEKA NeuralMesh and the cost-effective Scality RING object layer. This integration uses Scality’s lightweight object connector for NeuralMesh to efficiently move data between high-performance and high-capacity storage tiers. According to Scality testing, this combination delivers up to 10x faster performance and up to 20% lower infrastructure costs.
Local language support
Beyond technology integration, the two companies are also stepping up joint market development efforts in France. By combining local sales presence with French-language technical support, Scality and WEKA aim to reduce implementation complexity and provide a single support path for customers deploying AI infrastructure in regulated environments.
Scality CEO Jerome Lecat said AI adoption is increasingly constrained by data infrastructure rather than GPU availability. He said the partnership combines the best of both platforms, adds local French language support, and provides customers with a unified point of contact for mission-critical deployments.
Nilesh Patel, chief strategy officer at WEKA, said AI adoption is often limited by infrastructure performance rather than model availability. NeuralMesh is designed to maximize GPU utilization and inference throughput while reducing cost per token, he said. At the same time, Scality provides the cyber resilience and sovereign data control required by many regulated organizations in Europe. He added that local support helps reduce operational risk and accelerate production deployment.
