Nebius has announced the acquisition of Inferize, an Israeli startup focused on enhancing the efficiency of artificial intelligence systems. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, according to TheMarker.
Inferize, established approximately ten months ago, developed technology designed to reduce the startup time for AI models and dynamically adjust computing resources based on demand. A key function of this technology is to optimize the utilization of expensive Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), which are crucial for modern AI models. The system can rapidly scale computing resources up or down in response to changing workloads, thereby minimizing idle GPU time.
The startup, based in Tel Aviv, employs 17 people. Following the acquisition, the Inferize team will join Nebius and continue their work on AI infrastructure technologies.
Nebius itself specializes in cloud infrastructure for AI, offering companies access to substantial GPU-based computing power. The company was formed after the separation of Yandex's international and Russian assets and is led by Arkady Volozh.
