SwiftStack

SwiftStack was a software-defined object and cloud storage company whose data platform managed unstructured data at scale across private data centers and public clouds using a distributed, shared-nothing architecture built on OpenStack Swift, targeting AI, deep learning, and large-dataset workloads. NVIDIA acquired SwiftStack in 2020; the data platform is no longer available for sale and only existing-customer support and portal resources remain. This profile was surfaced as a portfolio company of Mayfield and enriched by the API Evangelist pipeline, which confirmed there is no active public API, developer portal, or SDK surface for the discontinued product.

SwiftStack is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Object Storage, Cloud Storage, Data Platform, and Infrastructure.

SwiftStack’s developer surface includes support and 1 more developer resources.
