Compute

Training, inference and production requirements are being narrowed from the first real use case.

Qualifying the first production AI workload and determining the right compute path.

Energy

No public infrastructure route is selected yet; requirements follow the qualified workload.

Energy is evaluated alongside cost, uptime and deployment resilience.
