Mirantis, delivering Kubernetes-native infrastructure for AI, today announced additional capabilities for k0rdent AI, further expanding the platform beyond infrastructure management to help enterprises, neoclouds, and GPU cloud operators monetize AI infrastructure investments. The new k0rdent AI Model Registry and k0rdent AI Inference Mesh enable organizations to securely host, govern, route, and meter AI models and inference services across federated computing resources.

Quick Intel

  • Mirantis launches k0rdent AI Model Registry for OCI-native storage of LLMs, fine-tuned variants, quantized builds across distributed infrastructure.

  • k0rdent AI Inference Mesh routes, meters, audits, and enforces policy on every inference request across models, regions, clusters, and providers.

  • k0rdent AI Inference Runtime maximizes tokens per GPU-second for improved infrastructure efficiency.

  • New capabilities help transform raw GPU infrastructure into governed, revenue-generating AI platforms.

  • Available today in preview; Mirantis exhibiting at Dell Technologies World May 18-21 in Las Vegas (Booth 414).

  • Mirantis delivers Kubernetes-native infrastructure for AI spanning bare metal, VMs, managed Kubernetes, and sovereign clouds.

Leadership Commentary

“As organizations move AI projects from experimentation into production, infrastructure teams are increasingly confronting operational and governance challenges around model distribution, inference visibility, compliance enforcement, and GPU economics,” said Kevin Kamel, vice president of product development at Mirantis. “Enterprises and GPU operators have largely been forced to stitch together fragile workflows and disconnected tools to operationalize AI. Models cannot be treated the same as containers because they have their own governance, sovereignty, compliance, and lifecycle requirements. The capabilities we're providing today are validated and benchmarked for users.”

k0rdent AI Model Registry

k0rdent AI Model Registry is optimized for AI model storage and distribution workflows. It provides a secure, OCI-native registry for managing large language models (LLMs), fine-tuned variants, quantized builds, and related AI artifacts across distributed infrastructure. The registry reduces the operational complexity often associated with secure AI model distribution.

k0rdent AI Inference Mesh

k0rdent AI Inference Mesh routes, meters, audits, and enforces policy on every inference request across models, regions, clusters, and providers. It provides a full view of where AI requests are going, what they cost, and any compliance gaps. The new products build on Mirantis' k0rdent AI platform, which focuses on Kubernetes-native AI infrastructure spanning bare metal, virtual machines, managed Kubernetes, and sovereign clouds.

Availability

Available today in preview, additional information can be found at the Mirantis website. Also, attendees at Dell Technologies World from May 18-21 in Las Vegas can visit Mirantis booth 414, schedule meetings, and learn more on the Dell Technologies World resources page.
