Coder, the leader in self-hosted, AI development infrastructure for the enterprise, and World Wide Technology (WWT), a premier global technology solutions provider, today announced a strategic partnership to help organizations rapidly modernize, optimize, and secure their AI development workflows across complex, large-scale hybrid cloud operations.
As AI tooling becomes integral to software development, highly regulated enterprises face friction between modern developer workflows and the infrastructure and security controls required to govern them. AI-powered IDEs, large-scale data science workflows, and autonomous coding agents demand access to sensitive code, data, and credentials at a scale that traditional laptop-based or ad hoc cloud setups cannot sustain. Coder and WWT have joined forces to accelerate AI-driven innovation in the enterprise while keeping development within secure environments.
The partnership combines Coder's self-hosted, agent-ready development platform with WWT's extensive expertise in enterprise infrastructure, integration, and secure deployment. Together, the companies are enabling software and data science teams to run modern AI development workflows across any cloud or infrastructure of choice with consistent governance, performance and controls — across public cloud, hybrid, on-premises, and air-gapped environments.
"Enterprises are moving beyond isolated AI experiments and into real production workflows, but what's missing is a governed foundation that supports modern AI development across every environment that enterprises operate in," said Rob Whiteley, CEO of Coder. "By partnering with WWT, we are enabling the world's largest and most security-conscious organizations to accelerate their AI initiatives. WWT's proven ability to integrate sophisticated solutions into demanding environments, especially in air-gapped and hybrid data centers, makes them the ideal partner to deliver the Coder platform to enterprises where security, governance, efficiency, and performance are non-negotiable."
Through the partnership, Coder and WWT will help enterprises address three core AI development challenges--
