European cloud and AI provider Scaleway announced the deployment of a new AI supercomputer in Sweden, while simultaneously announcing plans to open a new GPU Zone in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The deployment in Sweden will mark Scaleway’s first supercomputer outside France. "We are excited to deepen our work with AMD and bring the power of AMD Instinct technology to companies across Europe at this scale,” said Damien Lucas, CEO of Scaleway. “Doing it from Sweden makes this milestone particularly meaningful, as we continue to grow our presence and investment across Europe.”
“Scaleway is expanding the AI infrastructure choices available to customers across Europe with AMD Instinct GPUs and our open ROCm software ecosystem,” said Stephanie Dismore, Senior Vice President, EMEA, AMD. “Our work with Scaleway will help organizations access the high-performance compute and open software capabilities they need to develop and scale demanding AI workloads.”
The system will feature AMD Instinct™ MI355X GPUs and AMD ROCm™ open software.
GPU Zone Denmark
Scaleway is also introducing GPU Zones, dedicated locations designed to provide large-scale GPU capacity for AI training and inference, complementing its existing cloud Availability Zones. The announcement to open a new GPU Zone in Copenhagen, powered by powered by NVIDIA HGX B300, builds on Scaleway's established presence in Denmark, including public institutions such as the City of Copenhagen and AI innovators like Corti.
Scaleway's GPU Zone strategy is designed to bring high-performance AI computing closer to European customers, while prioritizing energy efficiency and sustainability. All sites are located within the European Union, in line with Scaleway's commitment to remaining a 100% European cloud provider and keeping its operations under European jurisdiction.
"Access to high-performance AI computing is becoming a strategic priority for European organizations, and they increasingly want that capacity delivered by providers they can trust. With our new GPU Zone in Copenhagen, we're responding to that demand by bringing the latest NVIDIA technologies closer to customers, while staying true to our commitment to European technological independence," Damien Lucas, CEO of Scaleway.
