CLI, API, Terraform provider, and Helm-ready clusters out of the box

Dell PowerEdge XE9680 servers with 8x 192GB AMD Instinct MI300X GPUs and Intel Xeon CPUs.

Transparent published MI300X rates with self-service VMs metered by the minute through Stripe; 8-GPU bare metal runs on monthly terms.

NetBox-backed inventory plus automated SONiC networking, PXE boot, host setup, and current ROCm drivers, so orchestration is not the first layer.

NUMA-balanced KVM virtual machines with direct GPU access and private isolated networking to avoid noisy neighbors.

8x400G RoCEv2 per chassis plus 100G internet and unlimited bandwidth.

Ubuntu options with ROCm, Docker, and optional K8s/Slurm/Ray installs via cloud-init.
