Core42 launches self-service AI Cloud platform
Neocloud platform delivers Pay-As-You-Go GPU computing
#UAE #GITEXGLOBAL2025 - Core42, a UAE-based leader in sovereign cloud and AI infrastructure has launched a self-service AI Cloud platform offering instant, on-demand access to Nvidia-accelerated computing with flexible pay-as-you-go pricing. Unveiled at GITEX Global 2025 in Dubai, the platform enables organisations to deploy advanced compute resources within minutes and execute AI workloads across the full lifecycle. Users can use the cloud platform for model training, fine-tuning and real-time inference at enterprise scale. The system operates on UAE sovereign compute infrastructure with tiered governance mechanisms ensuring compliant GPU allocation based on workload requirements and licence conditions.
SO WHAT? - As enterprise adoption of agentic AI systems and large language models continues to accelerate, so does the demand for substantial compute resources. Access to sovereign GPU infrastructure in the cloud - in particular for regulated sectors and geopolitically sensitive applications - addresses critical barriers to deployment. Core42’s new self-service AI cloud platform makes it easy for organisations to begin using sovereign cloud. According to the company, the launch positioned Core42 as the first regional neocloud provider delivering enterprise-grade accelerated computing capabilities comparable to global cloud platforms.
Here are the key details about Core42’s new self-service AI cloud:
G42 cloud infrastructure subsidiary Core42 has launched a self-service AI Cloud platform offering instant, on-demand access to Nvidia-accelerated computing with flexible pay-as-you-go pricing. The platform offers customers short-term and long-term commitment options through a simple console interface.
The platform delivers instant, pay-as-you-go accelerated computing across the full artificial intelligence lifecycle, from model training and fine-tuning to real-time inference deployment, enabling users to move from concept to execution in minutes with security and compliance built into core infrastructure.
Core42’s new services offers hourly pricing combined with managed orchestration supporting rapid prototyping, model hosting and inferencing workloads, with security and compliance governance built-in.
Access to GPUs (graphics processing units) is automatically governed by a tiered vetting system aligned with Nvidia licence conditions, ensuring compliant allocation based on GPU volume and workload requirements, whilst maintaining transparent audit trails throughout operations.
The platform operates on UAE sovereign compute infrastructure, enabling innovators to develop agentic systems, reasoning applications and mission-critical artificial intelligence with sovereignty and compliance integrated throughout the technical architecture.
The launch of the new service is another step toward delivering enterprise-ready, on-demand accelerated computing in the Middle East region on par with global cloud platforms, addressing sovereign AI concerns.
Core42 is showcasing the AI Cloud alongside its broader portfolio of sovereign cloud and artificial intelligence infrastructure solutions at GITEX Global 2025 within the G42 District.
ZOOM OUT - According to International Data Corporation, global sovereign cloud spending is projected to nearly double from $133 billion in 2024 to $259 billion by 2027. A recent whitepaper from Core42 and Microsoft titled Balancing Innovation and Compliance in the AI Era describes sovereign public clouds as foundational infrastructure for regulated industries and government transformation. Real-world applications using sovereign cloud in the UAE include fraud detection in financial services, predictive diagnostics in healthcare, citizen data protection in government operations and real-time analytics in energy sectors.
