Jaidev Karthickeyan: Global Head, Value Management, Cloudera

Tokens are the new currency of AI, but the cost of producing them varies dramatically. Cloud APIs look inexpensive on paper, yet once egress, storage, and SLAs are included, enterprise costs often run two to three times higher than published rates. Private AI, by contrast, lets organisations generate tokens wholesale, at predictable costs an order of magnitude lower. This session introduces effective cost per token as the anchor metric for evaluating AI strategies. Using real workload scenarios, we’ll compare Public, Private, and Hybrid models, and show why Hybrid AI delivers both efficiency and elasticity. We’ll also highlight how Cloudera provides the platform and governance to operationalise Hybrid AI, enabling enterprises to anchor workloads on Private AI while bursting seamlessly to the cloud when needed. The outcome: a practical framework to measure not just what AI costs, but the value delivered per token consumed.
