ABU DHABI (ALETIHAD)
Aleria, a leading provider of sovereign big data and C-level AI solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with NVIDIA to accelerate the UAE’s sovereign AI and cloud transformation.
The collaboration aims to establish a fully sovereign AI and cloud infrastructure — built, managed, and operated entirely within the UAE — to deliver secure, scalable, and high-performance computing for government and enterprise sectors.
As part of the partnership, Aleria will deploy NVIDIA DGX GB300 systems supported by DDN Storage and NVIDIA Hopper accelerated computing, creating a robust environment optimised for next-generation AI workloads. The initiative will also integrate expertise from DDN and SuperPOD specialists at Mbuzz, enhancing performance and reliability for AI-intensive applications while maintaining full data control and compliance.
Aleria’s Super App, developed with Tawasal, forms a central component of this ecosystem. Combining AI-driven communication and automation within a secure platform, it enables organisations to streamline operations, boost collaboration, and uphold complete sovereignty over data and communications.
“This partnership with NVIDIA represents a key step in building a sovereign AI ecosystem that empowers the UAE to lead in digital independence and innovation,” said Eric Leandri, CEO of Aleria. “We are driving forward a future where technology and sovereignty go hand in hand through key collaborations such as the AI Board Observer at IHC, as well as other regional and global partnerships. Our goal is to build intelligent, autonomous systems that protect data, enhance efficiency, and strengthen national capabilities, reflecting Aleria’s belief in ‘sovereignty in the palm of your hand'."
Marc Domenech, Regional Director, Enterprise META Region at NVIDIA, added: “Building truly sovereign AI ecosystems presents significant challenges that require innovative approaches to data security and platform independence. NVIDIA’s cutting-edge AI infrastructure and seamless integration capabilities enable partners like Aleria to realise groundbreaking sovereign AI solutions.”
To further enhance operational scalability and sustainability, Aleria has also partnered with Open Innovation to deploy an orchestration layer that optimises GPU utilisation and workload efficiency. The Aleria OS operates across diverse environments — from NVIDIA Studio to DGX Spark and cloud — allowing deployment on-premises or across thousands of GPUs. This flexibility supports seamless scaling from small clusters to hyperscale operations.
As Aleria evolves into a global Independent Software Vendor (ISV), its Aleria OS suite serves as the software foundation of the sovereign AI revolution. Integrating an AI-powered communications Super App and a unified management dashboard, it enables enterprises and governments to manage digital ecosystems securely and efficiently.
By advancing sovereign AI and cloud capabilities, Aleria and NVIDIA are reinforcing the UAE’s leadership in digital innovation, data security, and technological independence.
