Author: Kay-Lyne Wolfenden

This milestone marks a historic leap in Africa’s digital evolution; a move from foreign technology dependency to digital sovereignty, empowering enterprises, governments, and innovators to build, train, and deploy AI models within the continent’s borders.

Atlancis Technologies,  under its Servernah Cloud brand, announces the delivery and deployment of East & Central Africa’s first GPU-powered Artificial Intelligence (AI) factory, hosted at iXAfrica Data Centres, Kenya’s leading AI-ready carrier-neutral facility. This milestone marks a historic leap in Africa’s digital evolution; a move from foreign technology dependency to digital sovereignty, empowering enterprises, governments, and innovators to build, train, and deploy AI models within the continent’s borders. This milestone is also a catalyst for AI adoption and growth within the region by making GPUs locally accessible.

 

The Birth of African AI

Every revolution begins with a spark. Across Africa, ideas are abundant, but the High Performance Computing (HPC) Infrastructure is scarce. Until now. The Servernah AI-as-a-Service platform, built on Open Compute Project (OCP) design principles and powered by NVIDIA GPUs, delivers Hyperscaler compute performance engineered for Africa’s unique challenges. Delivered as a cloud service, the infrastructure is designed to accelerate high performance computing, machine learning, deep learning, and data analytics workloads with unmatched scalability, energy efficiency, and sustainability.

“This is more than HPCs and GPUs, it’s the heart of Africa’s AI revolution. We are proving that world-class innovation can be designed, built, and powered from within Africa.”

Daniel Njuguna, Founder and CEO, Atlancis Technologies

 

The Dawn of Africa’s Intelligent Future

“AI ready infrastructure was always going to be the first step to unlocking Africa’s AI opportunity and setting us up to taking more control of the intelligence future, through these partnerships we will see adoption rapidly scale upwards in all sectors.”

Michael Michie Co-founder and CEO, Everse Technology

Everse Technology supports customers in maximising their AI investment from business case development, through to model training and inferencing without data sets leaving the country.

Hosted at iXAfrica Data Centres: The Engine Room of InnovationThe infrastructure is hosted at iXAfrica’s NBOX1 campus, East Africa’s first hyperscale, AI-ready data centre offering customers power densities as high as 50 kw per rack. With its green-powered grid, carrier-neutral interconnectivity, and Tier 3 standards of reliability, iXAfrica provides the optimal environment for AI workloads, ensuring high-density power, low-latency connectivity, and 99.999% uptime.

“At iXAfrica, we see this deployment as a defining step in Africa’s AI infrastructure story. Partnerships like this are how we build the foundation for Africa’s intelligent future, locally powered and globally competitive.”

Snehar Shah, CEO, iXAfrica Data Centre

This is the first pulse of a new era where innovation is built here, for here.
