Self-Service Tenant Cluster Provisioning for AI Clouds

Give tenants a turnkey UI and CLI, or put your own portal and brand in front of vCluster APIs. Private Nodes are the production default for paying tenants, with a dedicated control plane and RBAC for each tenant cluster.

Problem

Why Provisioning Breaks AI Cloud Margins

Manual tenant provisioning slows onboarding and makes policy harder to apply consistently.

Slow Provisioning Kills Revenue

Ticket-based provisioning adds avoidable handoffs between customers and infrastructure teams.

Namespace Isolation Is Too Weak

Namespace-only designs share control-plane and node-level components, which is unsuitable for untrusted tenants.

Full Physical Clusters Are Too Expensive

Building a separate management stack for every tenant increases operational work and fragments policy.

Solution

One Portal to Provision Any Tenant Cluster

vCluster Platform gives tenants a self-service path to approved cluster products. Each production tenant receives Private Nodes and an isolated control plane, while operators retain control of templates, access, and capacity.

Built for Self-Service Tenant Cluster Provisioning

vCluster combines self-service cluster delivery with hard tenant isolation and centralized fleet operations.

Tenant Experience

EKS-Like Self-Service for Every Tenant

Tenants create approved cluster products through the built-in UI and CLI, or through a custom portal backed by vCluster APIs.

  • Portal-driven cluster creation
  • EKS-like tenant experience
  • Self-service tenant workflows
Speed and Scale

Dedicated Tenant Control Planes

Each tenant cluster gets its own virtualized Kubernetes control plane, API server, and RBAC boundary.

  • Own API server per tenant
  • API-driven provisioning
  • Hundreds of clusters, minimal overhead
Hardware Isolation

Dedicated Physical Nodes Per Tenant

Private Nodes dedicate worker capacity, networking, and storage to each production tenant cluster.

  • Dedicated worker nodes per tenant
  • Per-tenant CNI and storage
  • Dedicated compute boundary
Tenant Autonomy

Full Cluster Admin Without Shared Risk

Tenants receive cluster-admin inside their own environment, including control of CRDs and RBAC, without access to the control plane cluster.

  • Full cluster-admin per tenant
  • Custom CRDs and RBAC
  • Tenant-scoped permissions
Operator Control

Central Fleet Management Across All Tenants

Manage tenant clusters through one UI, CLI, and API with templates, quotas, policy, SSO, and fleet observability.

  • Unified UI, CLI, and API
  • Quota and policy enforcement
  • Cluster templates for fast onboarding

Why vCluster

This isn’t a side project. Behind every vCluster deployment is 5+ years of deep K8s engineering, security hardening, and battle-tested infrastructure work at massive scale.

FAQs

What is self-service tenant cluster provisioning and why does it matter for AI clouds?

Self-service tenant cluster provisioning lets customers create approved cluster products through a portal, CLI, or API. vCluster Platform applies templates, access rules, and capacity policy without routing every request through the infrastructure team.

How does vCluster isolate tenant clusters without provisioning separate physical servers?

Each tenant cluster gets its own virtualized control plane and RBAC boundary. Private Nodes are the production default for external tenants and assign dedicated worker nodes with tenant-scoped networking and storage.

What cluster types can tenants provision through the self-service portal?

The platform can offer managed Kubernetes, Slurm, Run:AI, Ray, and other cluster products according to the templates you publish. Run:AI remains responsible for its scheduling capabilities, and Slurm remains responsible for Slurm scheduling.

How quickly can an AI cloud provider launch a self-service tenant portal with vCluster?

vCluster provides a turnkey tenant UI and CLI, plus APIs for teams that want to build their own customer experience. Templates and policy let operators standardize what tenants can create.

Is vCluster Platform compatible with GitOps and infrastructure-as-code workflows?

Yes. vCluster Platform supports API-driven workflows and integrates with tools such as Terraform and Argo CD, so teams can manage tenant cluster definitions through established automation.

How does vCluster handle multi-region or multi-cloud tenant provisioning?

One vCluster Platform instance can manage connected control plane clusters across regions and infrastructure environments. Tenants use the same self-service experience while operators manage policy, capacity, and access centrally.
