AWS brings AI infrastructure directly to customer data centers

AWS and NVIDIA are collaborating on a strategic partnership with HUMAIN, the global company based in Saudi Arabia building full-stack AI capabilities, with AWS building a first-of-its-kind “AI Zone” in Saudi Arabia featuring up to 150,000 AI chips, including GB300 GPUs, dedicated AWS AI infrastructure, and AWS AI services, all within a HUMAIN purpose-built data center. “The AI factory AWS is building in our new AI Zone represents the beginning of a multi-gigawatt journey for HUMAIN and AWS. From inception, this infrastructure has been engineered to serve both the accelerating local and global demand for AI compute,” said Tareq Amin, CEO of HUMAIN. “What truly sets this partnership apart is the scale of our ambition and the innovation in how we work together. We chose AWS because of their experience building infrastructure at scale, enterprise-grade reliability, breadth of AI capabilities, and depth of commitment to the region. Through a shared commitment to global market expansion, we are creating an ecosystem that will shape the future of how AI ideas can be built, deployed, and scaled for the whole world.”
