GPU cloud infrastructure for AI training and inference workloads

Lambda adds IAM to its GPU cloud and plans a $33 billion Alabama data center.

ai-infrastructuregpu-clouddata-centersaccess-controlfinancing
◆Current state
Lambda Cloud now has identity and access management: roles, groups and service identities in the console. The same week Lambda announced a data center in Lowndes County, Alabama, with more than $33 billion of investment, and moved its site to lambda.com. On November 13 it released open-source GPU kernels with Stevens Institute and the OpenFold team that fine-tune the OpenFold3 protein model up to 1.73x faster.
◆Where it's heading
Lambda is raising money and building capacity at a fast pace while adding the enterprise controls larger customers expect. IAM and Run:ai both point at teams sharing GPU fleets, not single researchers.
◆Prediction
Expect more enterprise controls such as audit logs or SSO, and the Run:ai integration to ship; the entries give no dates.
