AI workloads are not like other workloads. They need GPUs scheduled efficiently across teams, frameworks that change monthly, and the ability to run the same stack in the data center, in the cloud, and at the edge. Kubernetes is how enterprises run that reliably - declarative, repeatable, and portable. The catch: assembling and operating a GPU-ready Kubernetes stack yourself typically takes months of specialist effort before any AI work starts. A containerized AI platform gives you the operating model without the integration tax.
Enterprise AI infrastructure, done right
You bought the GPUs. Now get them into production. ISC's PaletteAI services take you from idea to production AI on infrastructure you own - across the full lifecycle, from use-case discovery through deployment, migration, and managed operations. Built on PaletteAI from Spectro Cloud, part of the NVIDIA Enterprise AI Factory validated design.
Why a containerized AI stack makes sense
Why PaletteAI?
- One control plane, full stack.
Design, deploy, and manage AI infrastructure from bare metal to model serving - data center, cloud, edge, and air-gapped. - NVIDIA Enterprise AI Factory validated design.
Announced GA March 2026; runs the NVIDIA stack the way NVIDIA validates it. - Any Kubernetes, no lock-in.
PaletteAI manages any Kubernetes distribution - no per-core plus per-GPU licensing tied to a single distro. - Regulated and sovereign ready.
PaletteAI VerteX brings FIPS 140-3 for environments where data cannot leave the building.
Why professional services for PaletteAI?
PaletteAI is a powerful platform, but deploying, migrating, and managing enterprise AI workloads at scale requires deep expertise. Unmanaged GPU estates typically run at 5-40% utilization. Managed properly, 60-80% is achievable. The gap isn't the platform - it's the expertise to use it right.
95% of GenAI pilots fail to show ROI (MIT NANDA, 2025). The difference is rarely the model - it's use-case selection and the path to production.
ISC bridges that gap. Whether you're exploring AI for the first time, migrating workloads from legacy infrastructure, or scaling to hundreds of GPUs across clusters, we've done it.
Services overview

Phase 0
Assess AI maturity, identify use cases, build a roadmap
Phase 0 Services
Phase 2
Move existing workloads or build new ones
Phase 2 Services
Phase 3
Ongoing support, managed ops, and training
Phase 3 Services
