Bare Metal

No More SSH: Control Plane Overrides for Rafay MKS Clusters

Customizing a Kubernetes control plane has always been an uncomfortable exercise. You SSH into a master node, carefully edit a static pod manifest, and then hope nothing breaks. With our latest release, we are replacing that workflow entirely. Control Plane Overrides give you a safe, declarative way to customize the API Server, Controller Manager, and Scheduler for MKS (Managed Kubernetes Service) clusters — Rafay's upstream Kubernetes offering for bare metal and VMs — directly from the Rafay Console or cluster specification.

Accelerating the AI Factory: Rafay & NVIDIA NCX Infra Controller (NICo)

Acquiring GPU hardware is the easy part. Turning it into a productive, multi-tenant AI service with proper isolation, self-service provisioning, and the governance to operate it at scale is where most get stuck. Custom integration work piles up, timelines slip, and the gap between racked hardware and revenue widens.

Rafay is closing that gap through a new integration with the NVIDIA NCX Infrastructure Controller (NICo), NVIDIA's open-source component for automated bare-metal lifecycle management. Together, Rafay and NICo give operators a unified platform to manage their GPU fleet to deliver cloud-like, self-service experiences to end users.
