Kazakhstan launches Alem.Cloud platform

The Alem.Cloud platform has been launched in Kazakhstan. It will allow users to submit applications to access the national supercomputer cluster. Government agencies, researchers from scientific institutes and universities, startup developers, including participants of the Astana Hub, will be able to use the supercomputer’s resources. The Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development has developed rules for using the supercomputer. Thus, its computing and analytical capabilities are intended primarily for the development of strategically important projects aligned with national AI development tasks. These include projects in public administration, as well as developments in education and healthcare, agriculture, the oil and gas industry, geology, and robotics. Alem.Cloud may also be used for proposals in the mining and metallurgical complex, energy, transportation, and industry. Notably, Kazakhstan’s supercomputer is listed among the TOP-500 most powerful systems in the world and is the largest computing center in the region.
