Building the Internet for AI
Datum is a neutral, programmable middle layer where companies can programmatically connect without building the entire stack themselves.
Why Datum?
AI is changing everything — not just how we work and create, but how quickly new applications, agents, and even clouds are being built. Digital leaders today must orchestrate a complex, fragmented web of clouds, specialty providers, customers, and data. With Datum, cloud and AI-native builders can use the tools they love (like Cursor or a Kubernetes native CLI) to access the internet superpowers that today’s tech giants leverage at scale: authoritative DNS, distributed proxies, global backbones, deterministic routing, cloud on-ramps, and private interconnection.Fully Programmable
Developer- and agent-friendly protocols, interfaces, and workflows with programmatic interconnection between providers and services
Kubernetes Native
Built using Kubernetes API patterns for operator tooling and familiarity with kubectl, Helm, and the entire ecosystem
Neutral by Design
No allegiance to a single cloud, vendor, or region. Operates as a trusted, independent layer for alt clouds and enterprises
Bring Your Own Infra
Use Datum’s cloud control plane with its global network, or run components in your own cloud or infrastructure
