Adani and Jabil are teaming up to make AI hardware in India.
The Adani Group, India’s infrastructure-and-energy conglomerate, and Jabil, the US contract manufacturer, said on Monday they intend to form a strategic alliance to build a vertically integrated AI and data-centre hardware platform in the country. They put no number on it, and the agreement is not yet signed.
What they want to make is the physical guts of an AI data centre. The plan is multi-gigawatt capacity for high-density, liquid-cooled AI racks, servers, storage and networking, plus the power and cooling gear that surrounds them: distribution and coolant units, transformers, switchgear and thermal systems.
The pitch is a single, end-to-end source, from design to deployment. Jabil brings 60 years of manufacturing and, after recent acquisitions, power and thermal expertise; Adani brings infrastructure, green energy, logistics and its own fast-growing data-centre operations.
