What they do

Problem

AI training and inference workloads are costly, slow to start, and unreliable when GPUs fail or capacity changes, making orchestration and utilization inefficient.

Solution

Cedana provides Kubernetes-integrated live migration and orchestration for CPU/GPU workloads (supporting Kueue, Slurm, and KServe) to enable fast, reliable, reproducible, and cost-optimized AI compute.

Who it's for

ML platform teams and infrastructure engineers at enterprises, cloud providers, and AI labs running GPU-based training and serving workloads.
