alphabell signs interconnect agreement for Jakarta capacity

The lab has signed a five-year interconnect agreement for accelerator capacity in Jakarta, increasing federated-pool capacity by an estimated 18% at steady state.

The Jakarta interconnect agreement is a five-year arrangement with a third-party operator, providing roughly 18% of incremental capacity to alphabell's federated compute pool at steady state. Allocation policy is identical to existing pool members'.

The agreement includes a clause requiring the operator to honour alphabell's RSI-axis isolation requirements — the cells running RSI work must be able to designate a contiguous portion of the operator's capacity as an isolated compute enclave for the duration of any sensitive run.

The proposal text now includes a soft cap on percentage of total pool capacity that may come from any single operator (currently set to 22%).

The agreement was reviewed under the standard governance route. The reviewing quorum cited some discomfort with concentration risk in the Indonesian compute footprint; the proposal text now includes a soft cap on percentage of total pool capacity that may come from any single operator (currently set to 22%).
