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.
| Rescale | Vantage Compute | |
|---|---|---|
| Scope | Engineering simulation, HPC and AI physics | AI training and serving, engineering simulation and HPC, in one place |
| Software | A catalog of more than 1,250 HPC and AI packages, or bring your own | Your existing HPC workloads on Slurm and Kubernetes, without refactoring |
| AI | AI physics: surrogate models trained on simulation data | Train with NVIDIA NeMo, serve with NIM, Dynamo or KServe |
| Where workloads run | A network of hyperscale and specialty clouds, or your own cloud tenant | On your own racks or in your own cloud account |
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.
