He has authored over 15 patents in areas of system software, schedulers, storage, and virtualization.
A BIT MORE ABOUT THE RAPT PLATFORM
GPUs and AI accelerators are arguably the most critical resources for AI today. While GPU availability is a problem, the real issue is the inefficient and under-utilized usage of GPUs and AI accelerators, rather than just the shortage. The underlying issue is that there is a huge gap in the understanding of infrastructure by data scientists and ML engineers to use accelerators efficiently. Many engineering cycles are spent tooling and configuring infrastructure for AI models.
Rapt is an “AI-driven, access-anywhere, purpose-built computing platform” that creates a fungible infrastructure for your AI model runs. Our platform uses ML to optimize and orchestrate resources for AI training and inference with on-demand auto allocation of GPU and AI accelerator shares from any cloud and on-premise with absolutely no user intervention.

TESTIMONIAL
"The Rapt platform allows our Data Scientists to run Al models with one-click. This eliminates infra setups and resource configurations, increasing productivity by at least 4x. They can also run 3x more models in the same infrastructure and we pay 70% less to cloud while maximizing our on-premise Al servers."
