Odaily News - Digital infrastructure company HIVE Digital Technologies' high-performance computing division, BUZZ High Performance Computing, has signed a five-year AI cloud services contract worth approximately $350 million with an undisclosed investment-grade enterprise client. The contract is expected to generate approximately $70 million in additional annual revenue, bringing BUZZ HPC's annualized revenue to approximately $180 million. BUZZ HPC will deploy 2,016 NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs, utilizing the GB300 NVL72 system, NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand networking, and VAST Data storage. The cluster is expected to become operational later this year at Bell's AI Fabric facility in Merritt, British Columbia, Canada, which runs on renewable hydroelectric power and closed-loop liquid cooling technology. HIVE estimates the project's capital expenditure at approximately $185 million, which will be funded through previously announced financing and new equipment debt. The company expects daily revenue of approximately $500,000 from its HPC and AI business once the cluster is fully operational, and plans to achieve $200 million in annualized GPU cloud services revenue by year-end. The company holds approximately 400 megawatts of capacity in Canada, which can support over 120,000 GPUs over the next two years. (Bitcoin.com News)
Bitcoin mining company HIVE Digital Technologies has acquired land in the Toronto area for $58 million, planning to build an industrial-scale AI computing center through its subsidiary BUZZ High Performance Computing.
