For decades, Solace has been the quiet infrastructure company powering some of the world’s most demanding, data-intensive operations. Now, with agentic AI moving from hype to implementation, the company is stepping directly into the spotlight. Solace today unveiled a revamped Partner Program designed to help consulting, integration, and technology partners capitalize on what may be the most consequential shift in enterprise computing since cloud adoption.
Agentic AI—systems that can autonomously execute multi-step tasks—promises massive gains in productivity and operational efficiency. But to actually pull it off, enterprises need something far harder than a fancy model: real-time, contextual, ubiquitous data, the lifeblood of any AI agent attempting to make decisions in the wild.
Solace argues it’s uniquely positioned to deliver that foundation. With its real-time data movement platform already deployed across global banks, manufacturers, logistics giants, and consumer brands, the company now wants its partners to carry that capability deeper into the AI-driven enterprise.
Why Agentic AI Changes the Partner Landscape
Most enterprises today are stuck with data architectures that were never designed for real-time, event-driven decisions—let alone self-directed AI agents modeling, predicting, and taking action at machine speed. According to IDC, by 2027, 80% of agentic AI use cases will require real-time, ubiquitous data access, pushing global enterprises to shift from gatekeeper-style data models to federated ones.
That’s not an evolution—it’s a reconstruction.
For partners—from boutique consultancies to large integrators—the opportunity is wide open. But so is the risk. Many organizations want to deploy agentic AI but lack the modern data plumbing to sustain it. Solace believes its Partner Program fills that gap by giving partners a fast, validated path to enable real-time data interoperability across clouds, systems, and AI agents.
In short: if agentic AI is the engine, Solace wants to be the fuel line—and partners, the mechanics who install it.
Inside Solace’s New Partner Program
Available today, the new program includes:
- Tiered incentives and benefits for referral, co-selling, and customer impact
- Co-marketing investments, including joint events, campaigns, case studies, and enhanced partner visibility
- Skill-building resources, from certifications and product courses to best-practice blueprints and sandbox environments
- Direct access to Solace’s real-time platform, used by some of the world’s largest companies
For partners, this means both expansion of capability and greater influence in a market that’s shifting rapidly toward agentic automation.
“Collaborating with Solace has helped us deliver innovative solutions that drive meaningful transformation,” said Lee Mainman, CMO at Bits in Glass, a consultancy operating in the automation space for two decades. “The new Partner Program strengthens that foundation.”
Solace’s Advantage: Two Decades of Real-Time Credentials
While much of the AI ecosystem is still figuring out what “real-time” actually means in production environments, Solace has been shipping those capabilities for years. Its technology is used by companies with no margin for delay or inaccuracy—Bosch in manufacturing, Heineken in consumer goods, RBC Capital Markets in financial services, Schwarz Group in retail, and PSA Singapore in logistics.
These aren’t test labs—they’re operational infrastructures where milliseconds are competitive weapons.
With AI agents expected to trigger, respond to, and orchestrate thousands of micro-events per process, modernizing the data layer is not optional. Solace’s platform essentially turns fragmented enterprise systems into continuously updating, event-aware networks capable of feeding AI agents the context they need to make decisions.
Why This Matters: The Enterprise AI Race Has Only Just Begun
AI has reached a familiar inflection point: models are getting more capable than the data architecture they depend on. The next wave of innovation won’t come from bigger models but from better orchestration—the ability for AI to interact with enterprise data in real time, across business units, and across clouds.
Partners are the boots on the ground making that leap possible.
“Leading enterprises rely on Solace partners to implement the real-time data and agentic AI solutions they need to transform the way they operate,” said Paul Fitzpatrick, Chief Marketing and Business Development Officer at Solace. “The new program is designed to help partners not just deliver on that mission, but lead it.”
With agentic AI moving from experimentation to production, partners who understand event-driven architectures and real-time data interoperability will have a head start.
Solace clearly wants to be the infrastructure they build on.
