Vantage Compute vs Rescale

Rescale is a digital engineering platform with a catalog of simulation software, run on the clouds it connects or in your own cloud tenant. Vantage Compute also runs on hardware you own, with AI training and serving beside simulation.

When each option fits

Rescale: the better fit when

  • You want a managed catalog of simulation software, ready to run.
  • You have no cluster of your own and want cloud capacity on demand.
  • Your work is simulation, and surrogate models built from it.

Vantage Compute: the better fit when

  • You already own GPUs and want them used.
  • Data has to stay inside your boundary, on hardware you own or in your own cloud account.
  • You train and serve AI models as well as run simulation.

Frequently asked questions

Does data leave our boundary with Vantage Compute?

Data never leaves your boundary unless you choose to use cloud. Your models, your hardware, your jurisdiction.

Does it work with the GPUs we already own?

Yes. It runs on your own racks or in your own cloud account, and helps you find idle GPUs and share them fairly between teams.
