Kyndryl Rolls Out AI Private Cloud Service in Japan

Kindrill Japan Co., Ltd. (Kindrill) has launched the “Kindrill AI Private Cloud Service” to accelerate the use of AI in Japan. The first service, the “Private AI Infrastructure PoC Support Service,” helps organizations fully implement AI while ensuring technological independence.

The new service utilizes a dedicated AI private cloud environment in Japan, running on Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA , to support proof-of-concept (PoC) and large-scale language model tuning (LLM). Combining a single-tenant on-premise environment with Kyndryl Consult ‘s expertise, the service helps organizations execute their AI strategies while maintaining data sovereignty, security and privacy.

Leveraging its deep expertise in hybrid IT environments, both on-premise and on cloud, Kindrill provides a secure, low-latency environment for sensitive R&D and customer data that cannot be verified in standard public cloud environments, and enables more advanced prediction and inference, enabling the creation of models tailored to industry-specific requirements and corporate strategies.

Prior to the launch of the service, Kindrill completed a proof-of-concept (PoC) on the platform for customers in the manufacturing and automotive industries. The PoC involved developing, testing, and validating a generative AI application that analyzes customer sentiment based on user feedback about products. The application utilized the NVIDIA Llama 3.1 8B-Instruct NIM, which achieved highly optimized throughput and scalable generative AI inference processing.

This service is available in three different formats to meet the various needs of organizations.

Basic: Kindrill provides access to the AI ​​private cloud’s GPU hardware environment and related software, and the customer is responsible for deploying the OS and containers.

Standard: In addition to Basic, Kindrill will install the OS and containers.

Premium: For organizations new to AI implementation, Kindrill provides comprehensive support from PoC planning to execution.

Kyndryl plans to expand its “Kyndryl AI Private Cloud Service” in the future. Aiming for full-scale launch in March 2026, the service will gradually provide development support for the full-scale implementation of AI applications, utilization of agentic AI solutions, and the construction and operation of private AI platforms tailored to each customer’s needs.

Through the provision of this service, Kindrill Japan will help resolve key issues such as data privacy and security, and will continue to work to strengthen Japanese companies’ readiness for the introduction of AI.
