EDB Unifies Data and AI: The Sovereign Postgres Foundation for Deploying NVIDIA in the Public Sector

EDB Postgres® AI Factory Powers Mission-Critical Workloads within the NVIDIA AI Factory for Government Reference Design

WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EnterpriseDB (EDB), the leading sovereign AI and data company, today announced its inclusion in the NVIDIA AI Factory for Government reference design, a comprehensive blueprint that enables government agencies and high-assurance enterprises to deploy sovereign, secure, and scalable AI infrastructure.

According to EDB’s Sovereignty Matters research, 95 percent of enterprises plan to establish their own AI and data platforms within three years, and those already “deeply committed” to sovereignty are realizing up to 5× ROI.

By integrating EDB Postgres AI (EDB PG AI) with NVIDIA’s reference design for full-stack infrastructure, organizations can deploy mission-critical AI applications with the assurance, scalability, and control required for their most sensitive workloads.

“AI can’t reach its full potential in government or regulated industries without sovereignty and choice,” said Nancy Hensley, chief product officer at EDB. “Our integration with NVIDIA gives agencies the flexibility to deploy EDB Postgres AI wherever their data and mission demand—on-prem, in the cloud, or in hybrid environments—while meeting high standards of security and compliance.”

Purpose-Built for High Assurance

The NVIDIA AI Factory for Government reference design specifically supports AI workloads deployed in highly regulated environments. EDB PG AI is architected for maximum flexibility, enabling sovereign data and AI deployments on-premises, in the cloud, or hybrid—adapting to meet operational and compliance requirements.

EDB Postgres AI leverages NVIDIA NeMo Retriever and NVIDIA NIM microservices to deliver a secure, high-performance path to production AI. Within that framework, several key capabilities stand out including:

• Model-to-Data Architecture: Run models locally—including NVIDIA NIM microservices—keeping data within sovereign environments.
• RAG Acceleration: Integration with NVIDIA NeMo Retriever accelerates embedding and retrieval for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems.

Security Built for Mission-Critical Use

EDB is actively working toward FedRAMP Authorization, leveraging the Game Warden platform to accelerate accreditation. EDB solutions support compliance with database STIGs and FIPS 140-3 and deliver Iron Bank–hardened containers for U.S. federal government agency customers.

EDB PG AI is a single platform to unify data and AI layers and serves as the foundation for the NVIDIA AI Factory for Government reference design.
