# Cloudian

Cloudian is an object storage platform engineered for AI workloads, selling S3-compatible on-premises and hybrid storage for enterprises.

**Route:** surfaced by the AI Development and Deployment Infrastructure lane's de-branded queries → competitor to vercel.com.

**Why it's on the map:** Sells the same category of AI-cloud infrastructure (compute-adjacent storage) to platform engineers and AI/agent builders who would shortlist Vercel for hosting AI apps, as both provide the underlying platform for building, deploying, and scaling AI workloads.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Object Storage Engineered for AI

> Scalable S3-Compatible Storage, On-Prem with AWS Outposts

> Scaling Object Storage with Adaptive Data Management
