Discover what AI developers need from the cloud in 2025—from GPU performance to open-source flexibility and seamless Kubernetes integration.
In 2025, AI developers are more dependent on cloud infrastructure than ever before. The pace of innovation in machine learning, deep learning, and large-scale model training is accelerating, and developers need scalable, secure, and high-performance environments to build, test, and deploy their solutions. By 2026, organizations are projected to spend over $300 billion on AI systems, yet 83% of containerized resources remain underutilized, and vendor lock-in remains a top concern.
Clearly, something has to change in how we build cloud environments for AI. For AI teams, the cloud isn't just a tool. Let’s explore what developers expect from their cloud environments today.
One of the most critical needs for AI developers is access to GPU-powered infrastructure that can handle compute-intensive workloads like model training, inferencing, and real-time data analysis.
Atmosphere delivers on this need with fully integrated GPU instances across all editions: Cloud, Hosted, and On-Premise. These GPU instances are managed through OpenStack Nova, offering robust scheduling and orchestration to ensure optimal performance. Combined with features like SR-IOV, DPDK, and ASAP2 for near-bare-metal networking, and high-performance block storage via Ceph or third-party backends, Atmosphere empowers developers with a unified high-performance computing environment.
AI developers rely on Kubernetes for orchestration of containerized workloads. In Atmosphere, Kubernetes clusters powered by OpenStack Magnum with a custom Cluster API driver support GPU-accelerated applications natively. These clusters expose GPU resources via device plugins, enable autoscaling and auto-healing, and ensure GPU workloads can be deployed securely within isolated networks.
Storage integration is also seamless: Kubernetes GPU workloads can access persistent data through native CSI drivers, making it easier to handle large datasets in production environments.
AI development environments are becoming increasingly complex, involving not only model training but full pipelines for data ingestion, experimentation, deployment, and monitoring. Atmosphere supports this flexibility by providing:
With the ability to define custom instance flavors and integrate with diverse networking and storage setups, developers can tailor infrastructure to their exact workload requirements.
