Deutsche Telekom Launches Industrial AI Cloud, One of Europe's Largest AI Factories, in Munich
Deutsche Telekom
Deutsche Telekom officially launched its Industrial AI Cloud in Munich's Tucherpark, a sovereign AI factory built over six months with NVIDIA and data center partner Polarise on nearly 10,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs (including DGX B200 systems and RTX PRO Server GPUs), delivering up to 0.5 ExaFLOPS of computing power operated under German data protection, security and availability requirements. The factory is already operating at over a third of its capacity, with existing customers including Munich-based robotics company Agile Robots and engineering simulation firm PhysicsX. It underpins the 'Deutschland Stack' built with SAP (T-Systems providing infrastructure/platform, SAP providing Business Technology Platform and AI applications), and hosts the SOOFI (Sovereign Open-Source Foundation Models) research project, in which Leibniz Universität Hannover contracted Deutsche Telekom to provide infrastructure for training a sovereign, European-language-focused open-source LLM with around 100 billion parameters.
