As a result, India is firmly establishing itself as a key player in the global tech arena.”
Shakti Cloud features an advanced orchestration layer and a self-service portal, integrating the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform along with various open-source software and libraries. This provides customers with a complete ML-ops environment, enabling them to work with multiple model training frameworks, perform data curation, annotation, and generation tasks, and leverage hundreds of pre-trained models to create their own fine-tuned models.
Raj Mipuri, VP, Enterprise and Cloud, NVIDIA, said “India’s AI industrial revolution requires robust infrastructure and accessible tools to empower innovators across industries.”
“The combination of NVIDIA’s cutting-edge technology with Yotta’s Shakti Cloud platform delivers a comprehensive ecosystem that democratizes AI development, enabling businesses, researchers, and startups to rapidly create and deploy advanced AI solutions that drive innovation and economic growth throughout the country,” elaborated Mipuri.
With the launch of its AI platform, Yotta’s AI is delivering targeted solutions across industries, such as healthcare, BFSI, legal tech, and government. The integration of NVIDIA AI Enterprise software into Yotta’s SaaS offerings enables advanced capabilities such as large language models (LLMs), speech recognition, and multimodal AI services through NVIDIA NIM microservices and serverless inference platforms.
Yotta’s suite of AI products goes beyond providing the computational power needed for AI innovation. It offers a comprehensive approach to AI development, training and large-scale inferencing, making it a one-stop destination for all AI needs and empowering businesses to innovate faster and at greater scale than ever before.
Six AI services rolled out by Yotta:
AI Lab as a Service: The AI Lab as a Service is a power NVIDIA GPU workstation in the cloud designed for schools, universities, training institutes, research labs, and innovation hubs, providing a virtual space for hands-on AI learning & experimentation. It offers tools for collaborative research, model training, and simulations, all within a managed environment tailored to the needs of students, researchers, and faculty. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and resources, these virtual labs will help promote AI education and advancement in the country on a massive scale and foster innovation across various fields.
AI Workspace as a Service: The AI Workspace as a Service provides pre-configured NVIDIA GPU environments with all necessary AI development tools. This allows developers to quickly set up and start developing, fine-tuning, or deploying their AI models on top-end GPUs without the hassle of managing infrastructure. It’s ideal for enterprises, startups, and research organizations looking to accelerate their AI development projects.
Inferencing as a Service – Serverless: This service lets customers run inferencing on their AI models in a sovereign cloud, without managing the underlying infrastructure or bothering about the huge upfront costs otherwise associated with owning data center servers. The serverless architecture automatically scales based on workload, enabling real-time inferencing across large datasets. The pay-as-you-go model further reduces costs for AI-driven enterprises.
Inferencing as a Service – API Endpoints: Yotta offers inferencing capabilities using popular open-source models like Llama and Mistral, along with NVIDIA NIM microservices for NLP, computer vision, and generative AI. This service provides access to high-quality, pre-built models, allowing enterprises and startups to quickly integrate them into applications without the need for large-scale training. By hosting these models locally on Shakti Cloud’s NVIDIA GPUs, Indian customers can save significant time and computational resources.
GPU as a Service (GPUaaS): This service provides on-demand access to Yotta’s extensive GPU resources. Customers can rent NVIDIA GPUs by the hour or through subscription models, significantly lowering the upfront capital costs associated with managing AI infrastructure. It’s ideal for businesses focused on large-scale AI model training and inferencing.
Kubernetes Cluster as a Services (K8SaaS): This service allows customers to deploy and manage custom-sized private Kubernetes clusters and run containerized applications effortlessly on Shakti Cloud’s infrastructure. With automated scaling and self-healing capabilities, organizations can focus on development rather than operations. K8SaaS enhances resource utilization and accelerates deployment cycles, making it ideal for businesses adopting a microservices architecture in a cloud-native environment.
