Crypto and AI data center provider Soluna Holdings has signed on Atlas Cloud as a customer.
Soluna will be providing the compute necessary for Atlas' advanced AI video processing workloads, including 64 Nvidia H100 GPUs, for a period of one year.
The capacity will be provided via Soluna's agreement with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, in which Soluna has deployed HPE GreenLake infrastructure based on Nvidia H100 SXM GPUs within its data centers for its AI cloud offering. Plans for Soluna to offer AI cloud services were first announced in May 2024, though the partner was not named at the time.
With this latest deal, Soluna has now sold one-third of its initial HPE GreenLake cluster to customers. Initially including 64 H100s, there is the potential for Atlas Cloud to scale its use further.
“Our work with Atlas Cloud exemplifies Soluna’s ability to deliver sustainable, high-performance AI cloud services across a range of industries,” said John Belizaire, CEO of Soluna. “Building on our first AI customer, this second engagement demonstrates the strength of our collaboration with HPE GreenLake. We’re proud to be powering Atlas’s advanced video processing workloads and expanding our reach in the AI ecosystem.”
"By partnering with Soluna, the leading green data center developer in the space, we’re reinforcing our commitment to sustainable AI infrastructure at every level,” said Jerry Tang, Atlas Cloud founder and CEO. “This collaboration not only promotes Atlas Cloud’s mission to offer a one-stop AI cloud platform—from bare metal hardware to inferencing and model services—but also further validates our dedication to powering industry verticals like AI-driven video and image generation.”
Soluna is one of the many crypto companies to have, at least partially, pivoted to AI. The company currently has six data center projects either constructed or in development, including Project Rosa in Texas, which will be a 187MW data center once completed.
The company experienced significant growth throughout 2024. In September, it broke ground on a 50MW expansion at its Dorothy 2 cryptomine data center site in Texas, and secured funding for the expansion in May, with Spring Lane Capital providing $30 million for the expansion.
