DENVER and VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cologix, a leading network-neutral interconnection and hyperscale edge data center company in North America, today announced its collaboration with Coevolution Inc (CoEvo), an AI infrastructure edge cloud service provider, to expand GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) deployments from Cologix’s VAN3 data center in Vancouver, Canada. VAN3’s high-density infrastructure, robust security and connectivity via low-latency, network-neutral interconnections enable Coevolution Inc. to deliver high performance and scalable GPU computing for AI applications across Canada, the U.S., Japan and South Korea.
“We selected Cologix for its robust colocation capabilities that meet the unique requirements of our North American and global clients,” said Dong Wang, CEO, CoEvo. “This expanded deployment at VAN3 doubles our server capacity, providing rapid scalability and global GPUaaS access for Canadian, U.S., Japanese and South Korean customers, empowering them to drive AI innovation without infrastructure limitations.”
GPUaaS: Accelerating AI-Driven Business
GPUaaS delivers powerful, specialized computing resources over the cloud, designed for applications that demand intense parallel processing, including AI, machine learning and 3D rendering. Unlike general-purpose cloud services, GPUaaS offers high-performance clusters specifically tuned for AI workloads, allowing companies to avoid costly physical infrastructure and access CoEvo’s optimized, GPU-powered resources directly. This model enables faster deployment times and easy access to tools that drive real-world results.
CoEvo’s GPUaaS offering focuses on three initiatives: leading AI cloud infrastructure, aligning platform as a service with customer workflows and scaling global service for international operations. The full-stack, AI cloud infrastructure solution empowers hyperscalers, enterprises and developers to build, test and deploy AI applications at scale effortlessly, securely and cost-effectively. Offering large compute clusters for sophisticated hyperscale and enterprise clients, CoEvo’s Platform as a Service (PaaS) is built on the infrastructure layer, integrating a Model as a Service (MaaS) layer to seamlessly align with customer workflows at scale. CoEvo’s diverse regional customer base mitigates risk and drives growth.
“Our state-of-the-art AI private clusters in the U.S. and Canada are managed by a highly skilled, in-house engineering team, ensuring seamless scalability and performance for our clients,” added Wang. “A Canadian pilot site is currently serving a U.S. public company client, and our strong relationships with leading conglomerates in Japan, spanning sectors such as financial services and manufacturing, further showcase our ability to meet diverse industry needs. This global footprint positions us well to lead the international market in AI infrastructure and innovation.”
VAN3 Data Center: A High-Performance GPUaaS Hub
Cologix’s VAN3 is a 42,000-square-foot, Tier III data center and Vancouver’s largest network-neutral facility. It provides diverse, high-capacity connectivity to 20+ networks, VANIX and direct access to major public cloud onramps, including Amazon Web Services® Direct Connect, Google Cloud Platform, IBM Cloud and Microsoft® Azure ExpressRoute. With ISO 27001 certification by Schellman and HIPAA, SOC1, SOC2 and PCI compliance, VAN3 offers high-density infrastructure, robust security and connectivity via low-latency, network-neutral interconnections to Vancouver’s primary carrier hotel.
“Expanding GPUaaS with CoEvo underscores Cologix’s commitment to powering AI-driven business growth in Canada,” said Sean Maskell, President and General Manager, Cologix Canada. “VAN3’s advanced AI infrastructure empowers global businesses to leverage high-performance GPU computing to innovate and compete in an increasingly AI-centric world.”
