As AI and compute workloads grow, organizations are seeking greater control, security, and independence from hyperscaler cloud providers. This talk explores how we built a Sovereign AI & Compute Platform entirely on Kubernetes, designed to operate across diverse environments without vendor lock-in. We’ll dive into the architectural principles, open source components, and operational patterns that enable scalable, cloud-agnostic compute - from infrastructure orchestration to AI workload management. Attendees will learn how Kubernetes can serve as the foundation for a sovereign, portable, and resilient cloud-native ecosystem.
Built on this foundation, stack8s integrates with 15+ cloud providers and 700 data centers, allowing customers to keep their data where it is. We bring compute closer to compliant data through encryption, low-latency connectivity, and a true hybrid/multi-cloud experience. No more infrastructure headaches. No more vendor lock-in. Own your compute end to end.
