ActivePort Group Ltd (ASX: ATV) and Radian Arc have agreed to expand a relationship that will accelerate Artificial intelligence (AI) deployment within the telecommunications industry.
The collaboration aims to leverage Radian Arc’s AMD-based GPU platform, already installed in a rapidly expanding network of 50+ telco customers worldwide, to offer GPU-as-a-Service (GaaS) for AI. This groundbreaking partnership will enable telcos and their enterprise customers to easily deploy AI models within their networks, resulting in unique low-latency AI solutions.
Highlights
- ActivePort has added GPU-as-a-service capability to the ActivePort orchestration software;
- Radian Arc will leverage its installed base of telcos to utilise the existing and new GPU capacity for AI applications;
- The first customers are already planning deployment of large language models (LLM’s) for customer service applications;
- Orchestrating AI applications for the Telco’s to use for themselves and their customers, adds a significant new revenue opportunity for ActivePort.
By combining Radian Arc’s industry-leading telco infrastructure solutions with ActivePort’s state-of- the-art orchestration technology, the two companies are poised to transform the way telcos and enterprises approach AI model training and deployment. By leveraging Radian Arc’s AMD-based GPUs and FPGA encoders, Telcos can now offer high-performance AI models directly within their networks, delivering reduced latency and enhanced data security.
“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with ActivePort and introduce GPU as a Service capabilities to our telco customers,” said David Cook, CEO at Radian Arc.
“By leveraging Radian Arc’s cutting-edge GPU-as-a-Service technology, we are enabling telcos and their enterprise customers to harness the power of AI within their networks, empowering them to deliver unique low-latency AI solutions. The added advantage of data sovereignty ensures that our solution is well-suited to projects where training data, input data and results are country-specific or highly sensitive.
“Through this collaboration, ActivePort and Radian Arc are taking a significant step forward in accelerating AI innovation and addressing the evolving needs of telcos and their enterprise customers. By integrating AI and video streaming directly within telco networks, organizations can unlock new possibilities for AI applications, benefiting from reduced latency and enhanced data security.”
ActivePort’s Chairman and CEO, Peter Christie said AI models that enhance service delivery for telecommunications carriers and their customers or process video in real time are particularly suited to the technology the company is deploying to more than 50 telcos world-wide for Radian Arc.
“ActivePort’s orchestration software makes that platform readily available for telco customers to consume GPU and FPGA capacity for AI as a service. We are seeing a significant up-tick in demand for AI processing capacity and are perfectly positioned to deliver into that demand immediately.”
ActivePort and Radian Arc with support from AMD are actively working together to deploy the GPU as a Service solution to their existing and rapidly expanding network of telco customers. The partnership will accelerate the adoption of AI technologies, offering telcos and enterprises unprecedented opportunities for innovation and competitive advantage.
