In a significant leap forward for enterprise artificial intelligence, T-Systems has introduced its AI Foundation Services. Aimed at providing scalable and secure AI solutions, particularly large language models (LLMs), these services are designed to meet stringent European standards for data security and privacy. Enterprises can now develop, test, and produce AI systems within a private and secure environment tailored to their specific needs, ensuring compliance with regulations. The platform features over 15 pre-configured LLMs, including advanced models like Meta Llama 3.3 and Mistral Small 3, along with services such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and model fine-tuning. This allows organizations to seamlessly incorporate company-specific data into the AI models for more precise and reliable outputs. Notably, the services aim to support industries where data security and regulatory compliance are critical, such as healthcare and public administration.
Comprehensive Deployment Options
A key feature of T-Systems’ AI Foundation Services is the flexibility in deployment options, offering deployment on public or private cloud, as well as on-premises setups. This mitigates the risk of reliance on a single technology provider and grants companies the autonomy to choose according to their specific requirements. This approach is particularly beneficial for industries with stringent regulatory and compliance needs, allowing them to maintain control while implementing cutting-edge technology. Additionally, the solutions are hosted in Telekom data centers across Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, with options available for deployment on infrastructure owned by customers. This diverse range of deployment choices positions T-Systems as a versatile provider capable of addressing various enterprise needs.
The offering is further bolstered by partnerships with leading AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic, making popular AI models readily available to clients. This collaborative approach ensures that T-Systems’ clients have access to the latest advancements in AI technology while benefiting from the security and compliance measures embedded in the AI Foundation Services. These partnerships also mean that clients can integrate state-of-the-art AI capabilities into their workflows, driving innovation and efficiency within their organizations.
Regulatory Compliance and Industry Security
T-Systems focuses on the importance of sovereignty and adherence to EU regulations to ensure GDPR compliance and data sovereignty for their clients. By leveraging sovereign cloud platforms, their AI Foundation Services provide a comprehensive approach that lets businesses use AI innovations without sacrificing their independence. This is especially attractive to sectors like healthcare and public administration, which operate under stringent regulations and need high levels of data security. The services undergo thorough security checks prior to deployment, ensuring they meet regulatory standards for robustness and reliability.
Available via the Open Telekom Cloud Marketplace, the AI Foundation Services simplify the adoption and integration of AI solutions into existing infrastructures. This strategic move by T-Systems showcases their dedication to offering enterprise-grade AI solutions that prioritize security, scalability, and regulatory compliance. By providing a secure, compliant platform, T-Systems empowers businesses to innovate confidently, knowing their data is protected. This initiative indicates a broader trend toward secure and sovereign AI deployment, serving enterprise needs while meeting European regulatory standards.
