Luxembourg-based Gcore, an international provider of cloud and edge solutions, announced on Wednesday that it has launched a new AI Cloud cluster in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, to strengthen its global infrastructure.
The AI Cloud from Gcore is an AI-Infrastructure-as-a-Service that gives smaller businesses access to the IT resources of a tech giant, allowing them to create AI with less investment and minimal technical set-up.
Andre Reitenbach, CEO of Gcore, says, “We are excited to be the cloud provider which is building the first European AI infrastructure. With our British partner Graphcore, we’re making it easier to integrate innovations for all kinds of businesses, small or large. Our second AI Cloud cluster is an important step in this journey.”
What does Gcore’s AI Cloud offer?
Gcore’s AI Cloud is built with Graphcore’s IPUs (Intelligence Processing Units), a brand-new processor especially made for AI computing and Machine Learning processing. The company says they have two times as much power as standard central processing units (CPUs).
