Record Notes
Shonfeld Data Services has commissioned a ₪1 billion AI supercomputer in Petah Tikva equipped with 2,032 NVIDIA Blackwell B200
GPUs and a high-performance data fabric delivered in partnership with VAST Data. Marketed as Israel's first open-access AI platf
orm, the system offers startups, universities, and enterprises the ability to train state-of-the-art models locally rather than
queueing for scarce overseas compute. SDS plans to add thousands more accelerators by 2026, ensuring the private-sector cluster
keeps pace with national demand alongside the government-backed Nebius infrastructure.
