Cloudera to Sponsor 2026 AWS Summit Series in Eight Cities
Cloudera will sponsor multiple 2026 Amazon Web Services (AWS) Summit events across eight cities, planning demonstrations of its hybrid data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities. The company will focus on running AI workloads across hybrid and multi-cloud environments while addressing governance, security, and data handling requirements tied to specific countries or regions.
Cloudera said its participation builds on a longstanding collaboration with AWS and aligns with ongoing enterprise efforts to balance on-premises (on-prem) investments with cloud strategies. The company also described AWS as a member of its AI ecosystem, tied to deployment of scalable, open, and secure AI solutions in diverse environments.
The events will include demonstrations of “AI Anywhere,” described as enabling AI workloads to run seamlessly across hybrid and multi-cloud environments without compromising governance, security, data portability, or sovereign cloud requirements. Cloudera specified residency, control, and compliance in specific countries or regions as part of these requirements, and it referenced the use of Cloudera AI with NVIDIA in at least one session.
For Paris, Cloudera planned live demos at Booth P4 and a platinum-sponsored session titled “Accelerating Life-Saving Aid with Private AI,” featuring Mercy Corps’ use of Cloudera AI powered by NVIDIA. In Sydney, it planned a gold-sponsored lightning talk titled “Cloud Anywhere: Architectural Freedom for Unified Data and AI” and a networking reception at its booth, while Hamburg and Madrid included additional breakout sessions and demos; Cloudera also listed Washington, D.C., Jakarta, Zurich, and Tokyo as additional summit locations. “Our collaboration with AWS is central to delivering on the promise of AI Anywhere,” said Michelle Hoover, SVP of Global Alliances and Channels at Cloudera. “Customers shouldn’t have to choose between innovation and control. By combining Cloudera’s hybrid data platform with AWS’s cloud capabilities, we’re empowering organizations to run AI workloads wherever they need—while maintaining governance, security, and portability.”
