Deutsche Telekom Launches Industrial AI Cloud, One of Europe's Largest AI Factories, in Munich
Deutsche Telekom· GermanyNVIDIA Blackwell GPUs · NVIDIA DGX B200 · NVIDIA RTX PRO Server +1
Deutsche Telekom officially launched its Industrial AI Cloud in Munich's Tucherpark, a sovereign AI factory built over six months with NVIDIA and data center partner Polarise on nearly 10,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs (including DGX B200 systems and RTX PRO Server GPUs), delivering up to 0.5 ExaFLOPS of computing power operated under German data protection, security and availability requirements. The factory is already operating at over a third of its capacity, with existing customers including Munich-based robotics company Agile Robots and engineering simulation firm PhysicsX. It underpins the 'Deutschland Stack' built with SAP (T-Systems providing infrastructure/platform, SAP providing Business Technology Platform and AI applications), and hosts the SOOFI (Sovereign Open-Source Foundation Models) research project, in which Leibniz Universität Hannover contracted Deutsche Telekom to provide infrastructure for training a sovereign, European-language-focused open-source LLM with around 100 billion parameters.
Overview
Deutsche Telekom officially launched its Industrial AI Cloud in Munich's Tucherpark, a sovereign AI factory built over six months with NVIDIA and data center partner Polarise on nearly 10,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs (including DGX B200 systems and RTX PRO Server GPUs), delivering up to 0.5 ExaFLOPS of computing power operated under German data protection, security and availability requirements. The factory is already operating at over a third of its capacity, with existing customers including Munich-based robotics company Agile Robots and engineering simulation firm PhysicsX. It underpins the 'Deutschland Stack' built with SAP (T-Systems providing infrastructure/platform, SAP providing Business Technology Platform and AI applications), and hosts the SOOFI (Sovereign Open-Source Foundation Models) research project, in which Leibniz Universität Hannover contracted Deutsche Telekom to provide infrastructure for training a sovereign, European-language-focused open-source LLM with around 100 billion parameters.
The challenge
Germany and Europe needed high-performance, sovereign AI computing capacity operated under German data protection, security and availability requirements so that businesses, research institutions and the public sector could develop and run AI applications on European soil rather than depending on non-European infrastructure.
The solution
Deutsche Telekom built the Industrial AI Cloud together with NVIDIA and data center partner Polarise over six months, gutting and modernizing a former Hypovereinsbank data center in Munich's Tucherpark to house nearly 10,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs (including DGX B200 systems and RTX PRO Server GPUs) delivering up to 0.5 ExaFLOPS, operated under German data protection, security and availability requirements. The factory underpins the sovereign 'Deutschland Stack' built with SAP, where T-Systems provides the infrastructure and platform level (including T Cloud) and SAP provides the Business Technology Platform and business/AI applications. Siemens is integrating its SIMCenter simulation portfolio onto the Industrial AI Cloud, and Leibniz Universität Hannover has contracted Deutsche Telekom to provide infrastructure for the SOOFI project, training a sovereign, European-language-focused open-source LLM with around 100 billion parameters.
Reported business value
The Industrial AI Cloud is already operating at over a third of its capacity, with live customers including Munich-based robotics company Agile Robots and engineering-simulation firm PhysicsX. Its 0.5 ExaFLOPS of computing power would allow all 450 million EU citizens to use an AI assistant or chatbot at the same time, and customers can flexibly book computing power and platform services from pilot projects to mission-critical production systems.

AI serves QoS & operational efficiency
Orange France deployed AI-based tools across its network operations to improve quality of service and operational efficiency, including the Recovisu diagnostic tool that helps technicians correct errors during interventions, automated frequency declarations with the National Frequency Agency, AI-driven preventive maintenance for equipment such as antenna batteries, and an AI-evaluated citizen infrastructure-damage-reporting app. The NRJ5G app analyzed consumption data to prevent unnecessary mobile site electrical subscription upgrades, saving nearly 48 million.

Deutsche Telekom, in partnership with Google Cloud, announced MINDR (Multi-Agentic Intelligent Network Diagnostics & Remediation), a multi-agentic AI system built with Google Gemini models on Vertex AI and developed with Google Cloud's Autonomous Network Operations framework. MINDR correlates signals end-to-end across the RAN, transport, and core network domains to proactively identify service-impacting issues and support autonomous, explainable remediation, shifting operations from reactive troubleshooting to predictive automation. MINDR builds on Deutsche Telekom's RAN Guardian Agent, live in production in Germany since November 2025, which monitors network behavior during high-impact events and traffic surges. RAN Guardian autonomously triggered over 100 remediation actions at Christmas market events in its first month and reduced the time needed to manage major events from hours to around a minute (a more than 95% improvement). For 2026 it identified 237,000 events, including around 130 Carnival events each expected to draw over 10,000 participants, served by 611 mobile sites pre-checked for issues; only 5 sites experienced peak loads, which RAN Guardian optimized during the event. RAN Guardian is now scaling across Deutsche Telekom's European national companies, starting with the Czech Republic and Croatia. MINDR's first production releases are planned for later in 2026.
TELUS builds its Fuel iX generative AI platform on Google Cloud
Canadian telecom TELUS built Fuel iX, a proprietary generative AI platform on Google Cloud, giving more than 57,000 team members secure access to 40+ AI models, including Anthropic's Claude and Google's Gemini via Vertex AI. Employees have created over 13,000 custom AI solutions and 47 large-scale gen AI products, driving more than $90 million in benefits and 500,000+ hours of time savings to date, and TELUS's engineering teams now ship code 30% faster. TELUS extended Fuel iX to power its customer-facing GenAI support tool, which became the first gen AI tool in the world internationally certified in Privacy by Design.

Far EasTone Telecom (FET), a Taiwanese operator, applied Microsoft's network operations agent (NOA) reference architecture to redefine cloud-native network operations by embedding agentic AI across its network operations center (NOC) and change-management workflows. Nearly 60% of FET's NOC operations are now AI-assisted, with about 10,500 operational tasks executed per month, including incident summaries, automated ticket closure, network checks, and proactive voice notifications. AI agents handle large-scale alarm correlation and root cause analysis in seconds, supporting nearly 7,000 monthly operational queries with an average response time of 16 seconds, and most maintenance actions complete within one minute, significantly reducing human error and accelerating recovery times.
