RYDLR CLOUD SERVICES LTD

By developing locally-based AI clusters, we bring both the infrastructure and the opportunity to the region, not as an afterthought, but as the foundation for Africa's next wave of innovation

Rydlr Cloud Services Ltd is developing a Tier IV Green Data Centre and hybrid GPU cloud network in Kenya, designed to anchor Africa's digital transformation through sovereign, sustainable, and high-performance computing. Founded by Ted Iro Opiyo in 2020, the company unites expertise in cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence, and renewable-energy systems to address one of the continent's most urgent challenges: access to affordable, sovereign cloud and GPU capacity for data-intensive industries. Rydlr's architecture integrates Tier IV data-centre design, GPU-as-a-Service platforms, and renewable-powered HPC clusters to deliver scalable compute resources for AI, aviation, defense, healthcare, financial services, and the creative economy. Its flagship project, the Kipeto Green Data Centre, a 50 MW wind- and solar-powered facility + 50MW cooling, networking and storage overhead, currently in the MOU and development phase, aims to set a new benchmark for sustainable, high-reliability digital infrastructure in Africa. Supported by strategic partnerships programs with NVIDIA Inception Program, Microsoft Founders' Hub, Google Cloud Startups Program, IATA Start-up Strategic Partnerships, Cloudmania ISV Program and Liquid C2 Falcon Program, Rydlr's roadmap includes multi-country expansion, digital-twin platforms, and GPU cloud access for advanced AI model training and simulation. With its focus on data sovereignty, energy efficiency, and Tier IV-grade reliability, Rydlr Cloud Services Ltd is positioning Kenya as a regional hub for secure, sustainable, and sovereign AI infrastructure, ensuring Africa leads, not follows, the next era of digital transformation.
