The installation of the first supercomputer in Central Asia based on NVIDIA H200 graphics processors will begin in Almaty in the near future. This was reported by Bagdat Musin, Chairman of the Board of JSC Kazakhtelecom.
According to him, the equipment has already arrived in Kazakhstan and is stored in a warehouse. The installation of the computing system will be carried out at the Kazakhtelecom data center in Almaty. The work is planned to be completed within ten days.
"Without exaggeration, this is a truly powerful complex. 6.7 million CUDA cores, computing power of up to 1600 petaflops, tens of terabytes of GPU memory. This is the first such project in the region, and it opens up enormous opportunities for us," the head of the company noted.
The supercomputer will be made available to government agencies, national companies and corporate users. Its resources can be used to predict man-made risks, model urban traffic, develop AI-based medical diagnostic systems, and train large language models adapted to the Kazakh language, culture and historical context.
As Musin emphasized, the launch of this project will allow Kazakhstan to make significant progress in the area of sovereign digital development and reduce its dependence on foreign computing resources.
JSC Kazakhtelecom became the first official partner of the technology giant NVIDIA in Central Asia.
