Scality and WEKA Expand Partnership in France with Local AI Infrastructure Support

Scality and WEKA have expanded their partnership in France with a new joint customer support agreement that gives French organizations a single in-country point of contact for sales and tier-one technical support. The agreement, announced July 7 ahead of RAISE Summit 2026 in Paris, is intended to simplify deployment and ongoing operations for enterprises adopting AI infrastructure.

Under the agreement, Scality will distribute the joint solution to customers in France, provide local front-line support, and promote the offering throughout the country. The companies are targeting enterprise customers, government organizations, and AI developers that require high-performance storage combined with cyber resilience and data sovereignty.

Integrated Solution

The integrated platform combines WEKA NeuralMesh with Scality Autonomous Data Infrastructure (ADI). WEKA positions NeuralMesh as a high-performance AI storage and context memory platform designed to improve storage throughput and maintain high GPU utilization during AI training and inference workloads. Scality ADI complements the platform by providing autonomous data management, cyber resilience, and sovereign data control across the entire data lifecycle, from active datasets to long-term object storage at exabyte scale.

The expanded support agreement builds on the jointly validated architecture the companies announced on February 24, 2026, which pairs WEKA NeuralMesh with a cost-efficient Scality RING object tier. The integration uses Scality’s lightweight object connector for NeuralMesh to move data efficiently between high-performance and capacity storage tiers. According to Scality’s testing, the combination delivers up to 10x faster performance and up to 20% lower infrastructure costs.

Local-Language Support

Beyond technical integration, the companies are also increasing their joint go-to-market activities in France. By combining local sales efforts with French-language technical support, Scality and WEKA aim to reduce deployment complexity and provide a single support path for customers implementing AI infrastructure in regulated environments.

Scality CEO Jérôme Lecat said AI deployments are increasingly constrained by data infrastructure rather than GPU availability. He said the partnership combines the strengths of both platforms while adding local French-language support, providing customers with a unified point of contact for mission-critical deployments.

WEKA Chief Strategy Officer Nilesh Patel said AI adoption is often limited by infrastructure performance rather than model availability. He noted that NeuralMesh is designed to maximize GPU utilization and inference throughput while reducing cost per token. At the same time, Scality provides cyber resilience and sovereign data controls required by many regulated European organizations. He added that local support helps reduce operational risk and accelerate production deployments.
