As part of the cooperation with "Kazakhtelecom," NVIDIA supplied H200 chips with a power of 56.4 petaflops. Kazakhstan received two supercomputers—there are currently no analogs in the region and the CIS. The official launch of the cluster is scheduled for the summer. Computing power will also be available to neighboring countries in accordance with safety regulations.
As part of the cooperation with “Kazakhtelecom,” already in a commercial format, it was possible to agree with NVIDIA on the supply of H200 chips with a power of 56.4 petaflops. This is a significant computing power, and NVIDIA even mentioned the Kazakh AI cluster in its materials.
As a result, Kazakhstan received two supercomputers at once — for the first time in the region, and even in the CIS countries, there are no analogs yet. Thus, the President's directive was fulfilled in double volume, which became an important technological achievement.
The availability of high-performance equipment is only the beginning. The real effect will come from startups, AI solutions, and technology companies that will be able to develop within the country, without the need to transfer data abroad.
The cluster is open not only for Kazakhstan. It is planned to provide computing power to neighboring countries in accordance with security standards and principles of good neighborliness. The official launch of the supercomputer cluster is scheduled for the summer.
