k0rdent AI supports NVIDIA Grace Blackwell today and provides day-zero readiness for NVIDIA Vera Rubin and future accelerated computing generations for continuous evolution; builds on k0rdent AI support and integration with NVIDIA DSX OS

CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Mirantis, delivering Kubernetes-native infrastructure for AI, today announced alignment directly to NVIDIA's accelerated computing roadmap, ensuring operators can deploy with highest performance per watt and lowest token cost.

k0rdent AI is a carrier-grade AI infrastructure and lifecycle management platform that helps organizations operationalize AI at scale, accelerating the process of going from racked hardware to consumable services. The day-zero support for current and next-generation NVIDIA architecture builds on prior integrations with the NVIDIA Infra Controller (NICo) and NVIDIA DSX OS, the open-source, modular operating platform for AI factories introduced as part of the NVIDIA DSX platform. The integration of k0rdent AI with NVIDIA DSX OS helps organizations accelerate the deployment and operation of standardized AI factories while reducing complexity across large-scale computing infrastructure.

“AI infrastructure is now a multi-generation investment strategy with AI factories representing a fundamental shift in how infrastructure is designed and operated,” said Kevin Kamel, vice president of product management, Mirantis. “The combination of k0rdent AI and NVIDIA delivers lifecycle automation for a fully integrated, enterprise-ready platform that is future-proofed to deliver AI factories so that users can take advantage of NVIDIA’s latest hardware technologies without disruption.”

A Continuous Accelerated Computing Platform for AI Factories

Unlike traditional infrastructure platforms, Mirantis k0rdent AI enables continuous architecture readiness. Operators deploying on NVIDIA Grace Blackwell now can move forward to NVIDIA Vera Rubin and beyond without redesigning infrastructure stacks, changing operational models, or rebuilding provisioning workflows.

This model is particularly critical for neocloud providers and enterprise AI infrastructure teams making long-horizon purchasing decisions. By aligning directly to NVIDIA’s accelerated computing roadmap, Mirantis ensures operators can deploy with highest performance per watt and lowest token cost.

Enterprise-Ready NVIDIA NICo, Fully Integrated

At the foundation of this capability is Mirantis’ full integration of NVIDIA NICo as the primary provisioning and infrastructure lifecycle layer for k0rdent AI.

NICo automates:

Bare-metal hardware discovery;

Firmware validation;

NVIDIA BlueField DPU provisioning through NVIDIA DOCA;

Network isolation;

Tenant sanitization;

Secure lifecycle automation for multi-tenant AI environments.

While these capabilities exist in open source, operationalizing them at scale requires significant engineering investment. Mirantis has integrated NICo into k0rdent AI as a fully supported, validated, production-ready platform. This enables customers to deploy enterprise-grade AI factories faster while reducing infrastructure complexity and operational overhead.

Strategic Collaboration with NVIDIA

Mirantis is not simply integrating NICo downstream, it is actively helping shape the project upstream. As a primary open source infrastructure contributor to NICo, Mirantis works closely with NVIDIA to define how AI datacenter provisioning evolves across future accelerated computing platforms. Additionally, Mirantis is an inaugural partner for NVIDIA AI Cloud Ready, a validation initiative that qualifies and validates AI infrastructure software for deployment on AI clouds.

That strategic engineering collaboration gives k0rdent AI customers earlier access to innovation, tighter hardware alignment, and faster operational readiness.
