NetActuate Debuts Coherently AI, a Scalable “Cloud in a Box”

NetActuate Debuts Coherently AI, a Scalable “Cloud in a Box”

Coherently, Inc., a new startup backed by NetActuate, has officially launched Coherently AI, a groundbreaking software platform designed to simplify, scale, and monetize AI infrastructure. At the heart of Coherently AI is the Global Command Manager (GCM), a multi-tenant solution that enables telcos, enterprises, and cloud service providers (CSPs) to rapidly deploy AI environments—and even resell GPU capacity—across hosted, self-hosted, multi-tenant, and air-gapped deployments.

By integrating best practices from the NVIDIA Reference Architecture with an automated “zero trust” networking approach, Coherently AI delivers true “cloud in a box” functionality. Organizations can set up AI datacenters—from networking hardware to server firmware and OS layers—far faster than traditional methods, while seamlessly extending white-label AI services to their own customers.

Key Benefits of Coherently AI and GCM

Secure Multi-Tenancy at Scale

  • Dynamic Isolation: Tenants receive secure access to bare metal servers or virtual machines in seconds, with zero-trust security enforced via BlueField-3 DPUs and Spectrum-X Cumulus Linux switches powered by NVIDIA.
  • Tenant Lifecycle Management: Real-time provisioning and deprovisioning of GPU resources ensure on-demand flexibility for any number of tenants.

White-Label and Resellable GPU Services

  • Custom Branding: Operators can integrate logos, themes, domains, and even custom HTML/CSS/JS.
  • Revenue Generation: Resell unused GPU services to external customers via Coherently’s built-in marketplace and brokering tools.

API-Driven Architecture

  • Full Control & Customization: Every function, from provisioning bare metal to configuring GPUs, is accessible through a secure JSON-based API.
  • Deep Integration: Connect Coherently AI with existing billing, authentication, or internal portals to create a seamless user experience.

Automated Infrastructure Management

  • Day 0 to Day 2 Operations: GCM automatically discovers and configures all components, from networking switches to server firmware.
  • Reduced Complexity: Pre-validated drivers, container toolkits (such as NVIDIA Container Runtime), and specialized libraries eliminate trial-and-error in AI setup.

High-Performance AI Workloads

  • Optimized for NVIDIA RA: Supports up to 8 GPUs per server with low-latency, RDMA-based connectivity at 400 Gbps via BlueField SuperNICs.
  • Bare Metal & VM Options: Choose between raw hardware access or high-performance virtualization for generative AI, inference models, or telco-specific applications.
“Coherently AI addresses the fundamental complexity of AI infrastructure,” said Drew Hastings, CTO and Co-founder of Coherently. “By blending automated installation, high-performance networking, and robust multi-tenancy, we’re giving telcos and enterprises a true ‘cloud in a box’ solution. With faster time to market, direct ownership of data, and the ability to resell AI services with white-label branding, our customers gain new levels of flexibility and speed while maximizing ROI.”

Designed for Telcos, Enterprises, and CSPs

  • Telcos: Quickly deploy AI clusters within existing datacenter footprints. Offer generative AI chatbots, advanced analytics, and edge inference as white-labeled services.
  • Enterprises: Maintain full data ownership and meet regulatory compliance without building AI infrastructure from scratch. Automated workflows reduce deployment time from weeks to days—or even hours.
  • Cloud Service Providers (CSPs): Expand AI service offerings. Coherently AI’s built-in marketplace allows CSPs to provision GPUs and HPC resources to customers on demand.

Built for Modern AI & Networking

Zero Trust Security

BlueField-3 DPUs isolate tenant traffic and enforce per-tenant network separation with VXLAN, ensuring robust security.

Network Automation

GCM automatically manages the entire datacenter network topology, optimizing scalability and minimizing latency with EVPN and RDMA.

Seamless Integration & Global Reach

Coherently AI supports on-premises, hosted, and fully air-gapped deployments, meeting sovereign data regulations and government security standards. With NetActuate’s 40+ global data center locations and extensive network connectivity, Coherently AI accelerates large-scale AI rollouts worldwide—from initial deployment to ongoing optimization.
