Rafay and Dell Technologies Forge a Faster Path to Production AI
Dell Technologies and Rafay announced a joint offering that integrates the Rafay Platform with Dell AI infrastructure, enabling enterprises, telcos, and neoclouds to build sovereign AI platforms faster. Rafay is now part of Dell’s Extended Technology Complete program and the new AI Ecosystem Program, allowing global resale alongside Dell hardware. The collaboration promises to compress AI deployment cycles from months to weeks by delivering built‑in multi‑tenant governance, GPU slicing, and self‑service catalogs. Customers can procure both solutions through a single Dell channel, simplifying procurement and accelerating ROI.
What Is Platform as a Service (PaaS)? | Rafay
Platform as a Service (PaaS) delivers a cloud‑based environment that bundles infrastructure, development tools, middleware and runtime services, letting developers focus on code rather than ops. It sits between IaaS’s raw resources and SaaS’s finished applications, offering auto‑scaling, built‑in security...

The High Cost of Waiting: How GPU Idle Time Destroys AI Infrastructure ROI
GPU idle time is eroding AI infrastructure returns as NVIDIA H100 units, priced around $30,000, lose 60‑70% of value within two years after the Blackwell launch. A six‑month platform‑build delay can bleed more than $9 million for a 512‑GPU cluster, combining...
Rafay Achieves CNCF Kubernetes AI Conformance for v1.35 | Rafay
Rafay's Managed Kubernetes Service (MKS) has earned CNCF Kubernetes AI Conformance for version 1.35, the newest industry standard for running AI/ML workloads on Kubernetes. The certification proves MKS meets mandatory requirements across accelerator management, gang scheduling, GPU‑aware autoscaling, deep observability and...
Automated GPU Health Monitoring with NVIDIA NVSentinel on the Rafay Platform
GPU clusters cost tens of thousands of dollars per unit, and hardware faults can halt AI training and inference, jeopardizing service‑level agreements. NVIDIA’s open‑source NVSentinel adds continuous health monitoring, automatic quarantine, and self‑healing to Kubernetes‑managed GPU fleets. Rafay integrates NVSentinel...
AI Factories Will Be Won on Efficiency | Rafay + Kubex Partnership
Enterprises are moving from AI experimentation to building "AI factories"—repeatable, governed platforms that can train, deploy, and operate models at scale. Rafay and Kubex announced a partnership that combines Rafay's Kubernetes‑based AI orchestration with Kubex's autonomous GPU optimization. The joint...
Compute Domains & Multi-Node NVLink in Kubernetes: Scaling GPU Workloads
NVIDIA’s ComputeDomains add a Kubernetes‑native layer that dynamically creates and tears down multi‑node NVLink communication groups for GPU workloads. By extending the Dynamic Resource Allocation driver, the feature makes cross‑node bandwidth a schedulable resource rather than a static configuration. This...
The Telco AI Imperative: From Connectivity to Sovereign AI Infrastructure
Telecommunications operators are poised to shift from pure connectivity to sovereign AI infrastructure by leveraging their distributed data centers, edge fiber, and regulatory trust. The surge in AI training and inference workloads creates demand for GPU‑as‑a‑Service, token‑as‑a‑service, and AI marketplaces...
