NVIDIA and F5 are teaming up to enhance AI efficiency and security in sovereign cloud environments. They will integrate NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs with F5 BIG-IP Next for Kubernetes to deliver applications securely. This collaboration is crucial for industries with strict data governance requirements and is projected to address a growing demand for scalable AI infrastructure.

The announcement was made at the NVIDIA AI Summit in Mumbai, India, where it was highlighted that the sovereign cloud market is expected to grow to $250 billion by 2027. Additionally, the market for foundation models is projected to reach $30 billion by the same year, according to ABI Research.

Sovereign clouds are designed to meet data privacy and localization requirements, making them essential for industries handling sensitive data and government agencies. By deploying F5 BIG-IP Next for Kubernetes on NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs, industries can securely adopt advanced AI capabilities without compromising data privacy.

By offloading tasks to the BlueField-3 DPU, F5 BIG-IP Next for Kubernetes can efficiently manage AI prompts and reduce energy consumption. This ensures scalable AI performance while optimizing GPU resource utilization. NVIDIA NIM microservices will also see benefits from this collaboration, enhancing AI workload management.

The combined solutions from NVIDIA and F5 promise enhanced security and efficiency, enabling industries in highly regulated sectors to securely scale AI applications. These innovations will help industries transition to cloud-native infrastructures with confidence, meeting the highest standards for data protection.
