Huawei Cloud unveils advanced AI capabilities accelerating intelligence for all Industries at LEAP 2024
Huawei Cloud is participating in LEAP 2024, where it will showcase its advanced cloud capabilities and innovative Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions tailored for the Saudi market. The company's participation aligns with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, which emphasizes economic diversification and digital transformation. Accordingly, Huawei Cloud is committed to helping the Saudi government and industries achieve their digital transformation goals and upgrade intelligence through its class-leading cloud platform.
Huawei Cloud's Riyadh Region, the central hub for Huawei Cloud services in the Middle East, Central Asia, and Africa, has been providing cutting-edge and reliable cloud services since its launch in September 2023. With three Availability Zones, it ensures low-latency, secure, and innovative services for customers, covering major network carriers and offering a comprehensive range of cloud services, including infrastructure, databases, containers, big data, and AI services. Obtaining the Class C license within three months of launch reflects Huawei Cloud's commitment to enhancing connectivity, cloud computing, and AI services in Saudi Arabia, contributing to the country's core competitiveness in the digital era.
During LEAP, Huawei Cloud will showcase its Cloud Riyadh Region, demonstrating its dedication to customer-centricity and advancing local innovation and development. The main highlight at the event will be the Huawei Cloud Pangu Large Model 3.0, a commercial Arabic large model with 100 billion parameters and industry-leading understanding and generation capabilities. The model adopts a layered and decoupled architecture, providing diverse deployment modes, and meets the different needs of enterprises for large models.
Pangu AI-powered solutions include government and enterprise question-and-answer assistants and smart city solutions. The government and enterprise Q&A assistant provides multi-language Q&A services based on the Pangu Arabic large model and digital human technology. Meanwhile, the smart city solution completes multi-data analysis through multi-modal large models to assist intelligent operation centers in the fields of cities, electric power, energy, transportation and other fields. In addition, Huawei Cloud will showcase intelligent solutions for industries such as automotive, e-commerce retail, government affairs, electricity, finance, and media and entertainment.
Alan Qi, President of Huawei Cloud Middle East and Central Asia, said: "We are thrilled to participate in LEAP 2024 and showcase our advanced cloud capabilities and innovative AI solutions. We believe that our solutions can help drive digital transformation across various industries and enable the creation of smarter, more sustainable cities. We invite partners and customers to the stand and explore how we can collaborate to build a fully connected intelligent world."
At its stand, Huawei Cloud will demonstrate how its GeoGenius Digital Twin Solution can power the next evolution of the Smart City, the Cognitive City.
