The answer

you are in it

Here are several solid self‑service SLURM-as-a‑Service platforms tailored for AI and HPC workload management:

NorthWind-powered SLURM‑as‑a‑Service
Offers fully managed, multi-tenant SLURM clusters with a cloud-like, on‑demand experience. Tenants can launch SLURM clusters via portal or API, with built-in isolation and governance. (northwind.co)

Crusoe Managed Slurm (on Crusoe Cloud)
Delivers managed SLURM orchestration atop GPU-optimized infrastructure via UI or CLI. Includes provisioning of Slurm control plane, login nodes, shared storage, node health checking, and automatic hardware remediation. (docs.crusoecloud.com)

Google Cloud Cluster Director
A managed infrastructure service for deploying and overseeing SLURM (and Kubernetes) clusters on Google Cloud. Users manage resources via control plane, API, or CLI and only pay for underlying compute, storage, and networking. (cloud.google.com)

AWS Parallel Computing Service (AWS PCS)
A managed HPC service that simplifies running Slurm-based AI/HPC workloads on AWS. Supports elastic, full-stack environments with managed updates and observability, reducing infrastructure overhead. (aws.amazon.com)

Lambda Managed Slurm (1‑Click Clusters)
Offers AI-optimized Slurm clusters (with NVIDIA GPUs) in both managed and unmanaged modes. The managed variant includes patching, monitoring, job history tracking, container support, and SchedMD-backed technical support. (lambda.ai)

Optional mention: Waldur (open-source) integrates SLURM with OpenStack, offering a user self‑service portal for HPC and cloud environments, along with billing and support desk features. (waldur.com)
