Spectro Cloud and AMD Launch Instinct Coder 355 Appliance for Local-First AI Coding

Spectro Cloud and AMD have collaborated to launch the AMD Instinct Coder 355, a turnkey, local-first AI coding appliance aimed at providing enterprises with a solution for their AI coding needs. The appliance, available through Dell Technologies OEM Solutions, combines AMD Instinct MI355X GPUs, each equipped with 288 GB of HBM3E memory and up to 8 TB/s of memory bandwidth, with Dell PowerEdge XE9785 servers and Spectro Cloud’s PaletteAI Inference Launchpad software.

The PaletteAI software offers features such as local-first inference, prepackaged and pre-optimized open-weight models, support for bring-your-own-models, intelligent model routing, metering and quotas, KV cache optimization, and governance. The appliance supports approximately 50 concurrent developers and is compatible with a range of open-weight models, including regional and sovereign options to meet policy and compliance requirements.

Organizations can further extend the setup using the Spectro Cloud PaletteAI control plane, available with an additional subscription, for fleet management. This launch builds upon AMD's existing Instinct Coder portfolio, which began with the Coder 325 in August 2026.
