TD SYNNEX and Gcore Partner to Expand High-Performance AI Infrastructure Across Europe and Türkiye

TD SYNNEX, a leading global IT distributor and solutions provider, has announced a strategic collaboration with Gcore, an international provider of edge AI, cloud, and security solutions. This partnership aims to streamline access to high-performance AI software for partners across France, Germany, Spain, Italy, the Benelux region, and Türkiye.
The agreement focuses on integrating Gcore’s specialized AI portfolio—specifically the Gcore AI Cloud Stack and Gcore Everywhere AI—into the TD SYNNEX ecosystem. This move allows channel partners to bypass the traditional complexities associated with designing and deploying AI infrastructure, offering instead pre-validated, high-performance solutions that prioritize data sovereignty.
End-to-End AI Lifecycle Support
The collaboration addresses the growing demand for solutions that cover the entire AI lifecycle. From migrating raw GPU resources to the cloud and fine-tuning models to executing inference across on-premises, hybrid, and cloud environments, the partnership provides a comprehensive toolkit for enterprises.
Key offerings included in the agreement are:
-
Gcore Everywhere AI: A globally distributed edge inference platform designed to support the full lifecycle of AI applications. It provides high performance and data sovereignty for regulated and critical workloads.
-
Gcore AI Cloud Stack: A comprehensive software platform that enables the rapid transition of GPU resources into cloud environments, offering a customizable and integrated structure for AI development.
Craig Smith, Vice President of Data, AI, and Applications at TD SYNNEX Europe, emphasized the practical benefits for the channel: “By integrating Gcore’s AI software portfolio, our partners can now provide ready-to-use, data-sovereign AI solutions that meet performance, security, and regulatory requirements in real-world customer environments, with easier installation and scaling.”
Strategic Integration via “Destination AI”
Gcore will be incorporated into TD SYNNEX’s Destination AI program. This strategic initiative is designed to accelerate partner competencies in the AI space, providing end-to-end support ranging from initial skill development and onboarding to sales and marketing execution.
Andre Reitenbach, CEO of Gcore, noted that the industry is shifting its focus from initial training experiments to high-performance inference processes. “This collaboration allows our partners to deliver turnkey, end-to-end AI solutions for the most demanding workloads without the operational burden of managing complex infrastructure,” Reitenbach stated.
Gcore, headquartered in Luxembourg, operates its own high-performance infrastructure across six continents. Its solutions are particularly geared toward sectors requiring low latency and strict regulatory compliance, such as telecommunications, finance, healthcare, and energy.
Solving the “Inference Gap”
This partnership signals a significant shift in the European and Turkish AI markets, moving away from “experimental” AI toward “production-ready” AI. While much of the global conversation has focused on large-scale model training, the real challenge for enterprises today lies in inference—the process of running live data through a trained model.
By leveraging Gcore’s edge capabilities, TD SYNNEX is addressing two major bottlenecks: latency and data residency. In regions like Türkiye and the EU, where GDPR and local data protection laws (such as KVKK) are stringent, the ability to process AI workloads locally or at the “edge” is no longer a luxury but a requirement.
From a technical standpoint, the move to simplify GPU orchestration via the AI Cloud Stack suggests that the industry is maturing; we are seeing the “commoditization” of AI infrastructure. For partners, this reduces the “Time to Market” for AI services, shifting their value proposition from hardware integration to specialized AI consultancy and application development. This collaboration likely marks the beginning of a broader trend where distributors act as the vital bridge between complex specialized
