Persistent Systems and cloud computing platform DigitalOcean have partnered to accelerate AI adoption for enterprises and developers.
The collaboration seeks to develop cost-effective, scalable, and secure infrastructure to support AI workloads and deployments, the companies said in a release.
As part of the partnership, Persistent has selected DigitalOcean as its cloud and AI infrastructure provider for SASVA, its AI-powered platform.
SASVA integrates code, documentation, architecture, and executive summaries, adapting across diverse workflows and roles. The platform leverages DigitalOcean Gradient AI Agentic Cloud to run AI workloads and customer deployments.
This includes using Gradient AI for the full agent development lifecycle and high-powered GPUs from DigitalOcean’s AI infrastructure offerings.
Persistent said it selected Gradient AI Agentic Cloud to deliver cloud infrastructure for digital-native enterprises and AI-native customers, while reducing infrastructure and maintenance costs through managed, ready-to-use environments.
It also provides continuous access to a catalogue of diverse models, frameworks, and AI accelerators within SASVA.
Paddy Srinivasan, CEO, DigitalOcean, said, “DigitalOcean’s agentic cloud delivers the infrastructure, platform, and services that make AI accessible, scalable, and cost-effective.”
Partnering with Persistent, he said, expands these capabilities to more enterprise use cases by integrating the company’s AI foundation with SASVA’s deterministic engineering.
The companies aim to address the mounting challenges organisations face as they accelerate AI adoption, including rising GPU and infrastructure costs, fragmented agent development ecosystems, and increasing security and compliance requirements.
With the collaboration, they project to reduce AI infrastructure and operational costs by more than 50%, enabling faster adoption and more predictable scaling of AI across industries.
Sandeep Kalra, CEO and executive director, Persistent, said that 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.
“Together, we are simplifying how organisations build, deploy and scale AI, strengthening the foundation for the next wave of intelligent, platform-driven innovation.”
