At some point, you have to stop talking about it and start building it. Civo CEO Mark Boost unveils Civo's plan for the UK: 40 edge data centres with a combined gigawatt of capacity, built for low-latency inference and NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, the successor to Blackwell. Mark takes us inside a live digital twin of the rack. There are 72 GPUs wired so tightly together that they behave as a single machine, with so much power that the only answer is liquid in, liquid out. The rack is the computer.

Hardware costs are rising. But Civo Product Director Russ Smith has a different take: your existing kit just became more valuable. The hyperscalers competing for the same DRAM and compute as you still have to pass that cost on eventually. At high utilisation rates, your resource rental overtakes purchase cost. Typically in under a year.

Your Claude session cost $20. Shipping it safely shouldn't cost you a weekend. Vibe coders can build the app. Most can't deploy it without leaving the door open. Konstruct handles the infra, the Kubernetes, the "please don't get hacked" part, so your lazy Saturday idea gets to survive contact with the internet.

Raise your hand if your AWS cluster and your GCP cluster don't actually look the same That's the default, but it doesn't have to be. Watch Rishi show what "actually the same" looks like in practice.

The cloud first default has flipped. But every workload decision now needs to be made more deliberately. Civo Product Director Russ Smith shares his key takeaway: understand your legal constraints, know your lock-in maths, and check whether the economics that made sense three, five, or ten years ago still hold up today. You don't need to fund a new platform. You need a managed sovereign place for your data that actually fits where you are now.
