What competitive edge does AI infrastructure provide?
The financial services sector is experiencing unprecedented demand for AI infrastructure capabilities, driven by algorithmic trading requirements, regulatory compliance needs and customer experience expectations.
According to industry analysis, the AI data center market is growing at 28.3% CAGR, far outpacing traditional data centers, with 33% of global data center capacity expected to be dedicated to AI by 2025.
Meanwhile, 75% of financial institutions have already deployed AI according to the FCA Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning 2024 survey.
Eight hyperscalers expect a 44% year-over-year increase to US$371bn in 2025 for AI data centers and computing resources according to Deloitte research.
However, traditional data centers operate at 10-15 kW per rack, while AI workloads demand 40-250 kW per rack, necessitating liquid cooling solutions and custom power delivery systems.
Financial institutions face significant challenges in scaling AI infrastructure, with concerns about implementation costs, cooling requirements and the need for specialised expertise in GPU-centric deployments becoming increasingly critical for competitive advantage.
“Cloud offers unique capabilities for building strong data foundations at scale with robust governance and controls,” said Zac Maufe, Global Head of Regulated Entities at Google Cloud, in previous conversations with FinTech Magazine.
“Additionally, the need for on-demand compute power for different models at different times makes cloud infrastructure essential to the transformation journey.”
Where infrastructure meets deployment excellence
This executive workshop provides an opportunity to learn from industry veterans who have successfully navigated complex AI infrastructure rollouts in demanding financial services environments.
Technology leaders from Digital Realty and Computacenter will share first-hand experiences building and deploying international payments and AI infrastructure at scale, covering everything from general deployment considerations to the unique demands of liquid-cooled and GPU-centric AI infrastructure.
These experts will reveal practical insights on how infrastructure challenges were overcome, how end-to-end solutions enabled rapid deployment, and how partnerships with industry leaders successfully de-risked large-scale international HPC rollouts while delivering measurable performance improvements.
The workshop will examine critical considerations in large-scale AI infrastructure deployment, explore real-world case studies from European infrastructure deployments and provide actionable strategies for accelerating deployment timelines while minimising operational risks.
Register your interest to attend and learn from leaders with first-hand experience.
