  "account": "Enterprises are the key players in the GPU market, as they shift from cloud-native to AI-native stacks. While early adopters, such as the largest buyers, built massive GPU clusters, enterprises require more – distributed, secure workloads at global scale. Vultr, headquartered by Constant Company LLC, has embraced AMD silicon and open software stacks to cater to this growing demand. Kevin Cochrane, Vultr's chief marketing officer, explained that the early market focused solely on building large GPU clusters, overlooking the need for cloud infrastructure. Cochrane emphasized that enterprises demand distributed cloud infrastructure and global networking to support GPU adoption. He highlighted Vultr's new programs, such as the Open Source Credits Program, which provides infrastructure for the maintainers of CNCF projects, ensuring that the open-source community can continue to develop AI stacks. Distributed AI also affects inference serving, with Vultr aiming to maximize token reuse through a global namespace that shares KV cache across nodes. Connectivity between data centers remains crucial for enterprises, as they require private networks isolated from other tenants in a public cloud.",
  "summary": "Enterprises building AI-native applications are discovering that raw GPU capacity is only half the equation. As Kubernetes users move from cloud-native to AI-native stacks, the question is shifting from who has the most accelerators to who can run distributed, secure workloads at global scale. The first wave of so-called neoclouds stood up massive GPU clusters […] The post Enterprises, not a…",
