Oracle has invested about $ 40 billion (about 55 trillion won) in an open AI dedicated data center under construction in Avilin, Texas, USA. This fund is used to buy 400,000 copies of NVIDIA’s latest GPU ‘Black Well’.
The Financial Times reported on Wednesday that Oracle plans to take a position about $ 40 billion in NVIDIA’s high -performance computer chips, which can enter the information center for open AI.
The power is the primary base within the US, which is the world’s most within the US, which is the world’s largest AI training data center in mid -2026, which is accomplished.
The info center for Avilin is supplied with a complete of 1.2 Gigawatts (GW) and is supplied with 400,000 NVIDIA’s latest ‘GB200’ super chips. Oracle buys this chip directly and leases computing power to open AI for 15 years.
Aville site has a complete of eight buildings, and every constructing has as much as 50,000 chips.
Startup Cruso, who was accountable for data construction, recently announced that it has raised a complete of $ 15 billion (about 21 trillion won) of funds, adding a considerable amount of large funds. The $ 9.6 billion (about 13 trillion won) consists of debt led by JP Morgan and the remaining $ 5 billion (about 7 trillion won).
Cruso explained the business structure, “Oracle is our customer and open AI is Oracle’s customers.” Cruso began as a cryptocurrency business in 2018, but since then, it has emerged as a representative ‘NeoCloud’ company.
This project can be a key axis of the reduction strategy of Open AI’s dependence on Microsoft. Open AI has been offered exclusively from Microsoft with a $ 14 billion cloud credit and has been exclusively using Azure, but recently, it has been terminated for exclusive contracts and exploring various infrastructure partnerships around Stargates.
Open AI is expanding its Stargate project to global scale. Recently, the Abu Dhabi AI Campus, which was recently announced in the course of the Middle East, has a 5GW power capability and greater than 2 million GB200 chip accommodation on 10 square miles. Next week, the corporate plans to expand its partner country through the Asia -Pacific Tour.
The Avilin facility is predicted to compete with Memphis’s Colossus project, led by CEO Illon Musk. Musk CEO also said it plans to expand Colossus to a 1GW AI super cluster that accommodates as much as 1 million NVIDIA chips.
