Are there multi-tenant Baremetal GPU provisioning platforms?

The answer

you are in it

Yes—there are multi-tenant bare metal GPU provisioning platforms. The clearest examples in the results are Rapt, NorthWind, vCluster/vMetal, OpenNebula, and Mirantis k0rdent AI.[1][4][5][6][8][9]

A few concrete options:

  • Rapt: positions itself as a “multi-tenant GPU infrastructure platform” and says it supports bare metal, private cloud, and hybrid deployments with full isolation per tenant and configurable resource boundaries.[1]
  • NorthWind Platform: offers GPU Cloud Services and a Bare Metal GPUs-as-a-Service (BMaaS) product, with provisioning integrated from bare metal and support for secure isolation, quotas, and chargeback across tenants.[5][8]
  • vCluster / vMetal: markets bare metal GPU provisioning for AI clouds, combining vMetal for bare-metal lifecycle management with isolated tenant Kubernetes clusters and no hypervisor overhead.[9][3]
  • OpenNebula: describes an end-to-end multi-tenant AI factory stack, including bare-metal lifecycle management for GPU servers plus multi-tenant orchestration and quota management.[4]
  • Mirantis k0rdent AI: emphasizes bare metal provisioning with strict multi-tenancy, including bare-metal isolation, Kubernetes orchestration, and declarative GPU partitioning.[6][10]

What this means in practice: these platforms generally separate into two layers—bare-metal provisioning/lifecycle management and tenant isolation/orchestration—so the hardware can stay bare metal while tenants get isolated GPU environments.[1][5][9]
