Cloud Training Compute Infrastructure as a Service (public cloud)

General: Commits to mapping compute infrastructure to identify gaps and guide future investment (Action 1), but unclear if or how mapping exercise will capture the different types of compute articulated in this layer and no details on when mapping will occur. The Data Centre Expectations (a deliverable under Action 1 of the plan) include an expectation that 'enabling access to compute for Australian start-ups, innovative small businesses, researchers and not-for-profits on favourable terms' but the type of compute is not specified. Specific: Australian Government and Anthropic memorandum of understanding (MOU) (signed 1 April 2026) includes a provision that 'Anthropic intends to take steps towards ensuring benefits to local industry and researchers through access to its infrastructure ...'. In the Australian Government and Microsoft MOU (signed 23 April 2026), Microsoft commits to meeting the Australian Government's expectations for data centres and AI infrastructure developers, which include the expectation that (unspecified) compute be provided for Australian start-ups, innovative small businesses, researchers and not-for-profits on favourable terms. Significant commitment in the plan strongly aligns with recommended action to prioritise building agaency in this enabling capability.
