Walrus and Veea Inc. Announce Strategic Partnership to Unlock High-Performance Edge Utility for Decentralized Data Storage

PALO ALTO, Calif. and NEW YORK, July 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Walrus, the decentralized data storage protocol built by Mysten Labs, the original contributors to Sui, and Veea Inc. (Nasdaq:VEEA), a leader in intelligent edge infrastructure, today announced the adoption of Walrus as a VeeaHub STAX™ edge solution to provide high-performance data transport and storage capabilities for the decentralized network. The bundled solution is aimed at creating a highly secure, scalable, and low-latency data environment for Walrus’ decentralized storage solution, allowing the network to handle even the most data-intensive tasks for DApps and AI development.

VeeaHub STAX is a highly integrated computing and connectivity platform that leverages Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) architecture, designed to support various edge computing tasks over heterogeneous networks for decentralized applications. VeeaHub STAX, while powering a connectivity and computing mesh network with Walrus operating on its multi-Gbps NVMe clusters, ensures that data is reliably stored, instantly available, and secure.

“Veea’s edge infrastructure paired with Walrus’s programmable, decentralized storage offers new capabilities for developers building secure and scalable applications,” said Kostas Chalkias, Co-Founder & Chief Cryptographer of Mysten Labs. “Veea’s NVMe-powered nodes enable low-latency access to data stored on Walrus, increasing data availability for builders and empowering new use cases for edge AI and decentralized applications, including innovations like communications even in the absence of direct internet access.” Mr. Chalkias recently demonstrated internetless transactions, a direct result of the collaboration between Veea and Mysten Labs, where Sui nodes can send and receive transactions with no internet connection.

The integration will allow Walrus to scale seamlessly with thousands of STAX-NVMe storage nodes, maintaining the security and reliability of Walrus’ decentralized storage network while offering both costs and network speeds comparable to centralized data storage solutions of cloud services. Additional benefits from the integration include:

  • Access to tens of terabytes of storage for ultra-low latency, high-throughput, and decentralized applications over distributed hyperconverged networks with Edge AI.
  • Hybrid NVMe storage architecture designed for “hot content” delivery, unlocking applications for gaming, video streaming, and AI development.
  • Scalable, low-cost object storage to improve cost optimization for enterprise data.
  • Enhancements to both data availability and compliance, ensuring enterprises have access to scalable storage without compromising data sovereignty.
  • Improved data recovery capabilities, enabling enterprises to easily recover important files.

“We are thrilled to be working with Mysten Labs to deliver a pioneering solution that unlocks new capabilities, with genuine trust in a high-performance edge data platform, for a broad range of use cases, including ever more demanding edge AI solutions and Web3 applications,” said Allen Salmasi, Chairman and CEO of Veea Inc. “With Walrus having the ability to directly store and serve media on STAX-NVMe, such as images, sounds, sprites, videos, or game assets, developers can leverage the Walrus Decentralized Store now to readily build applications that run on a Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) with Veea’s STAX-5G/NVMe or STAX-NVMe nodes.”

Developed by the original contributors to the leading smart contract platform and layer 1 blockchain Sui, Walrus builds on Mysten Labs’ extensive innovations in blockchain infrastructure. Walrus is the data layer for the decentralized internet, and delivers programmable, scalable, and cost-efficient storage designed for the needs of decentralized applications and AI systems.
