About

What is VMetal?

VMetal offers a comprehensive solution for managing GPU data centers, enabling organizations to operate them like hyperscalers. It automates the provisioning and PXE booting of bare metal servers, dynamically scales Kubernetes compute clusters, and handles networking and DNS. Designed for Neoclouds, enterprises, and research institutions, VMetal supports high-performance computing for AI, machine learning, and data analytics workloads. It simplifies the deployment of AI platforms such as Run:ai, Ray, Slurm, and SkyPilot, delivering a managed platform experience akin to EC2 or EKS. This approach accelerates innovation and maximizes GPU utilization by turning raw hardware into programmable infrastructure.

Best used for

Ideal for developers who need to provision bare metal servers, orchestrate Kubernetes clusters, and deploy AI platforms on their own GPU infrastructure. Especially valuable for organizations looking to build a managed GPU cloud platform without extensive internal development, maximizing GPU utilization and accelerating time to value.
