The Industrial AI Cloud, backed by Deutsche Telekom, was built in record time, taking just six months to plan, build and launch, compared with the typical 12 to 24 months.
The telecom firm repurposed and modernized an existing facility in Munich's Tucherpark, with nearly 10,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs — the high-end chips currently in global short supply. Telekom says the computing power is sufficient for all 450 million EU citizens using an AI assistant simultaneously.
However, the Industrial AI Cloud isn't aimed at individual consumers. Instead, it targets Germany's industrial heavyweights, including automakers, machinery manufacturers and robotics companies. It could also be a critical tool for research institutions, the public sector and firms developing AI applications.
