The technology sector dedicated the past three years to developing infrastructure for artificial intelligence training, but financial investments are now shifting heavily toward serving. According to projections by Gartner, the AI-optimized IaaS market will experience a massive 96.4% growth, jumping from $21.5 billion in 2025 to a remarkable $42.2 billion in 2026. Breaking down those 2026 figures reveals that inference will make up $23 billion of the total, compared to the $19 billion allocated for training. Furthermore, this upward trend will continue, with the market share for inference expected to climb to 59% in 2027.
Fundamentally, inference processes require continuous operation, are highly sensitive to latency, and rely on a geographically distributed setup. Aethir's network was purposefully engineered from the ground up to perfectly accommodate these exact three characteristics.
