Uma Ventures is excited to announce its investment in Hydra Host, a leading infrastructure technology platform that bridges the gap between cloud and co-location. Founded in 2021, Hydra Host is at the forefront of enabling companies to build their businesses on GPUs.
The demand for GPU computing power is skyrocketing due to advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and other compute-intensive applications. With over 10,000 servers across more than two dozen data center partners worldwide, Hydra Host provides unparalleled access to cutting-edge GPU technology at competitive prices. This solution addresses the go-to-market challenges faced by companies seeking access to GPUs. Hydra Host’s software platform also allows data centers to monetize capacity that was previously inaccessible to the broader market.
“At Hydra Host, we’re committed to empowering businesses with the GPU infrastructure they need to stay ahead in an AI-driven world. Our partnership with Uma Ventures accelerates that vision, helping us deliver scalable, high-performance computing solutions across the globe. This collaboration will allow more companies to access the computing power they need to drive real innovation.”
