Kenya Becomes Home to Africa’s First High-Performance GPU Cloud Platform

Kenya, 11 November 2025 - Atlancis Technologies, through its Servernah Cloud platform, has rolled out East and Central Africa’s first GPU-powered AI hub. The facility is hosted at iXAfrica Data Centres, one of Kenya’s leading AI-ready, carrier-neutral data centres. The launch represents a key moment in the region’s technological evolution, providing access to high-performance computing infrastructure that will drive AI innovation and reduce reliance on external systems.

For years, Africa’s tech innovators have faced limited access to high-performance computing (HPC) systems needed for AI research and deployment. That gap is now narrowing with the introduction of the Servernah AI-as-a-Service platform.

Developed using Open Compute Project (OCP) principles and powered by NVIDIA GPUs, the platform delivers the computing strength of global hyperscalers, adapted to Africa’s specific needs. Offered as a cloud-based service, it supports machine learning, deep learning, data analytics, and other compute-intensive applications with improved scalability and energy efficiency.

“This is more than an infrastructure milestone; it’s the heartbeat of Africa’s AI revolution,” said Daniel Njuguna, Founder and CEO of Atlancis Technologies. “We’re showing the world that world-class innovation can be built, hosted, and powered entirely from within Africa.”

According to Everse Technology Co-founder and CEO Michael Michie, the deployment of AI-ready infrastructure is the critical first step toward realizing Africa’s full potential in artificial intelligence.
