AI is Becoming a Feature of Computing and Connectivity

Even when artificial intelligence is more a feature than a product, AI is intertwined with computing and connectivity these days. 

Digital Realty announced the official opening of its first data center in South Korea, said to be the first carrier-neutral facility in the country. Digital Seoul 1 (ICN10) is a multi-story facility spanning 22,000 square feet and is strategically located in the northwest region of Seoul within the Sangam Digital Media City, a newly developed urban planning zone populated with technology and media companies, serving as a hub to promote South Korea's digital economy, Digital Realty says.

With 12 megawatts of capacity, the new facility offers enterprises superior connectivity with direct access to all local exchange carriers in the Korean market as well as the global ecosystem of 4,000 participants in nearly 50 metros across 25 countries.

ICN10 is also a NVIDIA-certified colocation provider of choice in South Korea as part of the NVIDIA DGX-Ready Data Center program. The facility is designed to handle Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) workloads and analytics from NVIDIA.
