In the process of this collaboration, Yotta becomes the first NVIDIA Partner Network cloud partner (NCP) in India and joins the global list of NCPs as an Elite Partner in the NVIDIA Partner Network.
The company is also deploying an NVIDIA-based reference architecture with NVIDIA InfiniBand networking to allow GPU clusters to deliver great performance at scale for large AI training workloads, as well as large HPC workloads that require high computing power.
It has been announced that Yotta's Shakti Cloud AI platform will offer a variety of PaaS services from day one, which include foundational AI models and applications that will allow Indian enterprises to develop powerful AI tools and applications.
Yotta's highly acclaimed and Asia's largest Uptime Tier-IV data center, NM1, will host the first cluster of 16,384 GPUs in its Navi Mumbai data center. Yotta's next step will be to deploy a cluster of the same size in D1, Yotta's latest and largest hyperscale data center in Greater Noida, near Delhi.
During this time of phenomenal growth, India is transforming itself into a hub for research, online gaming, and digital content creation, making it the perfect place for this collaboration. India's adoption of artificial intelligence is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of more than 20% to reach US$14 billion by 2030. It is also predicted that the Indian gaming industry will grow furiously to reach US$5 billion by 2025. To meet the expectations of customers, all of these industries rely heavily on GPU computing.
Darshan Hiranandani, Co-founder and Chairman of Yotta, and Sunil Gupta, Co-founder and CEO of Yotta, share their excitement about the upcoming launch. Yotta's Shakti Cloud platform will usher in a new era of computing innovation in line with the vision of the Hon'ble Prime Minister for a digital Bharat with our collaboration with NVIDIA, a global leader in GPU technology in India, to launch our Shakti Cloud platform in India. In order to help Indian businesses, governments, startups, and researchers take advantage of GPU-as-a-Service solutions that enable advancements in AI, machine learning, gaming, content creation, and scientific research, we are excited about embarking on this journey by leveraging our scalable cloud and data center infrastructure and NVIDIA's cutting-edge GPU technology.. With Yotta, we aim to accelerate innovation and transform industries across India by delivering the power of NVIDIA GPUs as a service in order to accelerate growth, efficiency, and excellence across the region. Our collaboration with India represents an important milestone in our journey, and we are looking forward to the endless possibilities that this collaboration will bring for our customers, as well as for India as a whole, in the future. In addition, we would like to thank the Ministry of Information Technology and the governments of Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh for their continued support in making this project a reality by their continued support
