What is the next killer app for the final border? According to Jeff Bezos, it is the future fleet of the Gigawat Data Centers, flying in the orbit and powered by sunlight.

Bezos – who has established Amazon Retail giants held his personally as well as Blue source Space Venture – Last Friday to point out the possibility of orbital data centers during a fire chat during a fire Italian Technology Week 2025 In Turin, he has cast the technology as the most expensive way to meet the need for more power to make the technology progress in artificial intelligence.

However, do not expect the cloud computing to leave the world immediately. Bezos assumed that the conversion of world-based data processing could take more than 10 years.

“I bet it was not more than 20 years,” he said. We are going to start creating these giant gigawat data centers in space so, so, these giant training clusters, they will be built on better places, because we have solar power there, 24/7.

Space-based solar arrays will not face weather constraints that have to survive with earthly solar-power installations. Once the arrays are in orbit, the energy is basically free.

We will be able to overcome the cost of ground data centers in space over the next few decades,” Bezos said. “The place will end as one of the places that make the earth more developed

Several commercial initiatives are already planning to keep data centers in space with Seattle-based Starclaoud and Sofia Space, with a significant California-based startup with significant Seatol connections. Houston-based Axium Space 2022 has tested an Amazon Web Services Snowkone Cloud-Computing Device at International Space Station in this year, this year Axiom is doing up gear Its first Orbital Data Center nodes to transmit the lower world to orbit.

During Friday’s Fireside Chat, Bezos started from the advice of entrepreneurs (“the thing you always go back to the customer’s needs”) (“when the dust is fixed and you see who they are, the benefits of society benefit from the benefits of society”).

Bezos became his agenda for space commercialization at the end of the talk. There are a few more TDBts from that part of the Fireside Chat:
