Cloudera earned the AWS AI Competency through its AI Anywhere strategy and private AI by design architecture, which enable customers to build and deploy agentic AI workflows directly where their data resides, whether on-premises or on AWS, eliminating the need to move large or regulated datasets. This hybrid approach allows organizations to leverage foundation models across environments while maintaining performance, control, and flexibility. Through integrations with Amazon Bedrock and other AI tools and infrastructure, Cloudera helps to ensure that these workflows operate within a secure, governed perimeter, delivering the auditability, fine-grained access controls, and data sovereignty required for highly regulated industries.

Achieving this AWS AI Competency validates our ability to help customers operationalize AI across hybrid environments, combining the scalability of AWS with the governance, security, and flexibility required to deploy agentic AI at enterprise scale."
