QumulusAI Secures Priority GPU Infrastructure Amid AWS Capacity Constraints on Private LLM Development

Developing a private large language model (LLM) on AWS can expose infrastructure constraints, particularly around GPU access. For smaller companies, securing consistent access to high-performance computing often proves difficult when competing with larger cloud customers. Mazda Marvasti, CEO of Amberd, encountered these challenges while scaling his company’s AI platform. Because Amberd operates its own…

Mazda Marvasti, CEO of Amberd, encountered these challenges while scaling his company’s AI platform.

Developing a private large language model (LLM) on AWS can expose infrastructure constraints, particularly around GPU access. For smaller companies, securing consistent access to high-performance computing often proves difficult when competing with larger cloud customers.

Mazda Marvasti, CEO of Amberd, encountered these challenges while scaling his company’s AI platform. Because Amberd operates its own private LLM, the team required dependable, dedicated GPU capacity rather than shared cloud resources. Marvasti says limited GPU access created delays and operational uncertainty. He ultimately turned to QumulusAI for a more predictable alternative. The move provided priority, fixed-cost GPU infrastructure, enabling Amberd to deliver dedicated environments where customers retain ownership of both the machines and their data.

We needed GPUs because we're using a private LLM. We're not using OpenAI's GPUs to answer our questions. We started developing our stuff on Amazon. We had a lot of problems getting GPUs. As a small startup, you know, you really are at the back of the bus. We needed GPUs because we're using a private LLM. We're not using OpenAI's GPUs to answer our questions. I don't want to stand in line. I want to be first in line. Cumulus allowed us to do that. Be first in line, get something that is fixed cost. I can then transfer that fixed cost back to my customer and then provide them the capability that you own this machine, you own this infrastructure, therefore you own the data.
