CTSH partners to deploy on-premises AI models for regulated sectors, targeting 50% of cloud AI workloads shifting to sovereign clouds by 2029.
Cognizant Technology Solutions (NASDAQ:CTSH) announced a strategic partnership with Domyn to deliver sovereign AI solutions across EMEA. The collaboration focuses on providing on-premises or private cloud AI infrastructure, including large language models tailored for enterprises in regulated industries like financial services and government.
The initiative aligns with a Gartner forecast predicting 50% of cloud AI workloads will move to sovereign deployments by 2029 due to geopolitical factors. Cognizant will handle application integration, domain-specific model adaptation, and data pipeline management for enterprise deployment.
Initial efforts will target clients in the UK, Ireland, Europe, and the Middle East, addressing demand for localized AI solutions in compliance-heavy sectors.
