MANAGED INFERENCE

Managed inference, built your way.

Give every customer and every internal team a private inference endpoint in minutes. Compose the service from the engines and tools you choose, and run it on your own infrastructure.

Trusted by AI clouds and AI factories across 100K+ GPUs
The problem

Everyone wants inference. Few teams can serve it.

OPTION A
Build it yourself

Months of work and a dedicated platform team.

OPTION B
Adopt a rigid, one-size service

One opinionated path that can’t bend to your hardware, models or users.

EITHER WAY
Your GPUs sit behind a queue

Teams and customers wait while GPUs sit underused.

A rigid service vs. vCluster

WHO IT’S FOR

One platform, two ways to put it to work.

Serve your own teams, or build an offering for your customers.

Enterprise AI factories

Private inference for every internal team: Every team gets its own endpoint. No ticket queue, no sharing.

  • An endpoint per team or app
  • Showback per team
  • Models and data stay in-house
  • Any engine, no lock-in
AI cloud providers

The foundation for your own inference offering: Offer managed inference under your brand, not just GPU-hours.

  • An isolated endpoint per customer
  • Token usage tracked per customer
  • Your brand and pricing
  • Sovereign by design: data stays in your data center
HOW IT WORKS

From bare metal to a private endpoint in minutes.

One definition creates the cluster, installs the inference service in the right order, and hands over an endpoint.

1
Machines

vMetal provisions GPU nodes as bare metal or VMs through one stable API.

2
Cluster

Each customer or team gets an isolated cluster on Private Nodes: dedicated GPUs, no sharing.

3
Inference stack

The Stack installs the engine, gateway, autoscaling and observability, health-gated step by step.

4
Endpoint

Your user gets an endpoint, API keys and a usage view.

INSIDE AN INFERENCE STACK

Opinionated defaults. Swap anything.

A single, rigid offering doesn’t fit the reality on the ground. Here’s an example inference Stack, step by step. Start with the defaults, or swap any layer for the tool you already trust.

Secrets
Database password and gateway master key, generated per deployment.
Kubernetes Secrets
Model servers
The inference engine that loads and serves the model.
vLLM
Alternatives:
NVIDIA Dynamo
SGLang
llm-d
KServe
KubeAI
llama.cpp
Autoscaling
Adds model server replicas as requests queue up, removes them as traffic drops.
KEDA
Metrics
Time to first token, output tokens per second, throughput.
Prometheus
Database
API keys, usage records and service state.
Postgres
Rate limiting
Per-key and per-customer limits.
Valkey
Gateway
One OpenAI-compatible endpoint, so existing apps and SDKs work unchanged.
LLM gateway
Verify
Health-checks the service and reports the endpoint, latency and throughput.
Built-in

Every step is open and forkable in the vClusterStacks repository, alongside partner Stacks like Saturn Cloud’s AI token factory.

YOUR USERS’ EXPERIENCE

Your users see an endpoint. Everything else is yours to run.

Customers and teams see the service, nothing beneath it.

A private endpoint

Its own isolated cluster. Nothing else visible.

Works with existing SDKs

Point existing code at it. No new libraries.

Self-service API keys

Create, revoke and block their own keys.

Usage and a playground

See tokens and latency. Test models first.

OPERATOR EXPERIENCE

Your hundredth endpoint costs what your first did.

Each new customer or team is a deployment, not a project.

One console for every endpoint

Every customer and team in one view.

Isolation by default

Its own cluster and nodes for every owner.

Showback built in

Tokens and cost per owner, from the gateway.

API first, your portal

Use our console or put your own in front.

SEE IT WORK

Watch an inference service go live.

“Adding a service to an AI cloud shouldn’t mean starting a new integration project each time. vCluster built the Saturn Cloud Stack, so an operator can deploy it like any other service. Each customer gets private inference in an environment of their own, ready to use right away, and a small team can keep adding services without adding headcount.”

THE SAME MACHINERY

Inference is one more cluster type, not another platform.

Same control plane virtualization, same isolation model, same Platform console you use for every other cluster you run.

Kubernetes Clusters

Conformant clusters with their own control plane per tenant.

Slurm Clusters

Tenants see only their own partition and jobs.

NVIDIA Run:ai Clusters

Tenants see only their own projects and jobs.

Ray Clusters

Tenants see only their own head node and workers.

Start from bare metal

vMetal provisions the GPUs underneath, so the same flow runs from bare machines to a live inference endpoint.
