About Rafay Infrastructure Orchestration & Workflow Automation Platform

About Rafay

Rafay builds infrastructure orchestration and workflow automation software that powers self-service compute consumption for Sovereign AI Clouds, Cloud Service Providers & large enterprises.

We’re entering an era where every company is becoming an AI company, but infrastructure hasn’t kept up. Hyperscalers offer vast compute power, but enterprises and sovereign providers face fragmentation, cost escalation, and sovereignty challenges.

Rafay envisions a future where:

Infrastructure is instantly consumable across GPUs, CPUs, and across any compute environment
Self-service consumption replaces ticket queues and manual provisioning
Enterprise-grade governance is intrinsic, with compliance, quotas, and audit trails built in
Utilization soars, maximizing scarce resources
Cloud Service Providers enjoy higher margins and higher utilization, launching GPU Clouds and marketplaces across the globe

Rafay is weaving the orchestration fabric that transforms raw infrastructure into business outcomes so infrastructure is turned to impact and AI ambitions become a reality.

OUR CORE VALUES

We believe infrastructure should be a launchpad for innovation—not a barrier to it.

Years ago at a previous company our founders spent just as much time wrestling with Kubernetes and leveraging cloud computing than they did developing the software product they were selling. At that time first-generation and do-it-yourself (DIY) Kubernetes solutions entered the market in an attempt to help, but they just didn’t solve core issues related to automation, security, visibility and governance. They felt there had to be a better way — a PaaS way — to manage CPU and GPU-based workloads for their modern infrastructure and so they decided to build one by starting Rafay Systems.

All of us at Rafay believe that modern applications can power a better future and they deserve a mature, battle-tested and easy way of managing them. Without that, the promises and business value of these cutting-edge applications built on the cloud are at risk.
