Beeline Kazakhstan has started construction of a Tier III hyperscale data centre in Almaty designed to anchor the country’s sovereign cloud, AI compute, and enterprise digital services ecosystem. Branded as the “Hyper Cloud” facility, the project aims to support SMEs with a full portfolio of cloud services, including Infrastructure-as-a-Service, Platform-as-a-Service, Backup-as-a-Service, GPU-as-a-Service, and Security-as-a-Service.
The data centre will operate as a sovereign cloud platform, ensuring that all customer data remains within Kazakhstan in line with national security and data sovereignty regulations. Beeline confirmed that the facility will feature full-service redundancy within its own infrastructure, although specific details on IT load capacity and rack space have not yet been disclosed.
Beeline Kazakhstan CEO Evgeniy Nastradin said the investment is critical to enabling the country’s next phase of digital growth, particularly in areas such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and next-generation telecom services. He highlighted that cloud capacity is now a foundational requirement for Kazakhstan’s expanding IT sector, which has grown to more than 18,000 companies, marking a 16 percent increase over the past three years.
The announcement follows a recent strategic agreement between Veon’s Kazakhstan-based software unit QazCode and sovereign AI firm MeetKai to develop next-generation large language models. The collaboration targets local-language agentic AI services across Veon’s operating markets, including Kazakhstan. QazCode is also working on KazLLM, the country’s first Kazakh-language large language model.
The Tier III Hyper Cloud data centre is scheduled to become operational by the end of 2026.
