WEKA taps Glocomp to strengthen AI infrastructure deployment in Malaysia

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – WEKA has entered into a partnership with Glocomp Systems (M) Sdn. Bhd. to provide AI infrastructure solutions for organisations across Malaysia. Under the agreement, Glocomp will serve as WEKA’s exclusive end-to-end AI infrastructure partner in the country, combining WEKA’s NeuralMesh storage and memory technology with NVIDIA accelerated computing platforms for local deployment.

The collaboration will make the integrated AI infrastructure offering available through Glocomp’s network of more than 150 resellers and system integrators nationwide. The arrangement follows recent developments involving WEKA’s NeuralMesh AI Data Platform and broader sovereign AI initiatives to support locally managed AI capabilities.

“The age of reasoning is upon us, and organisations that delay building the right AI foundation risk falling behind at an accelerating pace,” Nilesh Patel, Chief Strategy Officer at WEKA, stated. 

“Glocomp shares our conviction that Malaysian enterprises deserve world-class AI infrastructure, deployed locally, supported locally, and ready to scale from a first workload to an exabyte-scale AI factory. Together, we’re making that a reality.”

The partnership is intended to address operational and technical issues faced by Malaysian enterprises adopting AI technologies, including low GPU efficiency, integration challenges involving multiple vendors, and compliance with local data governance requirements. Sectors expected to use the infrastructure include financial services, government agencies and research institutions.

A central element of the partnership is the introduction of the Malaysia AI Starter Pack, a pre-configured AI infrastructure package jointly developed by the two companies. The offering combines NVIDIA computing and networking systems with WEKA’s NeuralMesh platform in a validated reference architecture designed for enterprise deployment.

“Our customers have been asking for a complete, locally supported AI solution they can deploy with confidence, not a collection of components they have to stitch together themselves,” Joseph Giam, Managing Director at Glocomp, commented. 

“The AI Starter Pack changes that. Through our network of partners across Malaysia, we can now bring a fully validated AI infrastructure solution to any organisation, at any scale, in weeks rather than months.”

The system is intended to reduce implementation timelines from several months to approximately two weeks. Meanwhile, the infrastructure is also designed to support incremental scaling, allowing organisations to expand capacity as AI workloads increase.

Glocomp will provide technical support services covering pre-deployment assessment, integration and ongoing operational assistance. The solution is also intended to support local data residency requirements by ensuring infrastructure deployment and management remain within Malaysia.

The partnership comes as Malaysia continues efforts to strengthen its position as a regional centre for AI and digital infrastructure investment, with increasing emphasis on sovereign AI development and locally managed technology ecosystems.
