Who are the Asian neoclouds?
DEPLOY tracks 11 verified GPU-first cloud operators across 6 Asian countries, from India and Japan to Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore and Taiwan. Each rents AI compute as its product, independent of the hyperscalers, and links to a sourced registry record below.

Independent, GPU-first operators only; the region’s hyperscalers are excluded by the neocloud test. “What it runs” and partner status are drawn from each operator’s sourced record. The physical campuses behind these operators are in the data-center registry.
Common questions
Who are the Asian neoclouds?
DEPLOY tracks 11 verified GPU-first cloud operators across Asia, spanning 6 countries, including Yotta Data Services, Sify Technologies, Krutrim, Jio Platforms, GMI Cloud, Sustainable Metal Cloud. Each is an independent operator whose product is rented AI compute, distinct from the region’s hyperscalers.
Are there Chinese neoclouds?
China’s AI compute is dominated by hyperscalers (Alibaba Cloud, Tencent, Huawei, Baidu) that run general-purpose clouds where AI is one product of many, so they fall outside the neocloud definition (independent, GPU-first, compute-as-the-product). DEPLOY tracks independent GPU-first operators; the Chinese independent tier is an active coverage frontier rather than a claim of completeness.
Which Asian neoclouds are NVIDIA partners?
Most of the tracked Asian operators build on NVIDIA and hold formal partner status, including Yotta Data Services, YTL AI Cloud, Tata Communications. Partner tier (Reference / Elite / Preferred / Cloud Partner) is recorded per operator where verified.
Why is Asia the neocloud wedge?
Because Asian GPU-cloud coverage is the least mapped elsewhere and among the fastest-growing, driven by sovereign-AI programs, national LLM efforts, and conglomerate-scale buildouts (telcos, utilities, IT majors). DEPLOY prioritizes it for exactly that reason. See the full neocloud taxonomy and roster.
