Cloud giants accelerate their foray into AI. Amazon invests $10 billion to build data centers in Mississippi.
Amazon, a subsidiary of Amazon, announced on Thursday that it plans to invest $10 billion in building two data center complexes in Mississippi. With more and more companies adopting new artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, the demand for cloud services is growing, prompting the company to expand its capacity once again. Businesses are doubling down on AI development, and it is expected that the majority of traffic will be managed on the cloud infrastructure of the top three global providers - Amazon, Alphabet-C Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Just a few days ago, Amazon announced an investment of over $15 billion in Japan to expand its cloud computing and AI capabilities. Alphabet-C also invested $1 billion to establish a data center in the outskirts of London. Amazon stated that it will establish multiple data centers in two industrial parks in Madison County, creating at least 1,000 new jobs in Mississippi. Since 2010, Amazon has invested $2.3 billion in the state for infrastructure development, including the construction of five distribution and sorting centers.
