Benefits
With Rafay GPU PaaS, both enterprise IT/operations and end users experience a number of benefits. Let's review them separately.
Enterprise IT/Operations¶
Enterprise IT/Operations experience the following benefits:
- Create and manage a "centralized pool of GPU resources" spanning multiple data centers, clusters and cloud providers.
- Use their infrastructure (public cloud or data center) and ensure that data never leaves their environment into an untrusted service
- Do not incur unnecessary data egress costs to 3rd party services
- Curate and manage organizational standards for workspaces, software frameworks, libraries and integrations with Git
- Centralized access management to corporate data
- Manage a GPU pool with heterogenous GPUs (different GPU providers, models)
- Zero provider lock-in allowing them to operate in any provider of infrastructure of their choice
- Effortlessly and automatically scale up/down to meet dynamic needs of the organization
End Users (Data Scientists/ML Researchers/)¶
Enterprise IT/Operations can provide their developers and data scientists with the following benefits:
- Provide a vending machine style self-service experience to request and use GPU enabled workspaces that can span multiple cloud providers and types of infrastructure (i.e. private data centers and public cloud providers).
- Deliver a curated, turnkey experience with workspaces that can come preinstalled with critical frameworks, libraries and applications saving them significant time/effort.
- Ensure that the workspaces are pre-configured with secure access to corporate data and Git
