NVIDIA Open-Sources Run:ai GPU Scheduling Platform for Kubernetes Clusters

NVIDIA released its full Run:ai AI workload scheduling platform as open source on 13 October 2026, letting one pool of GPUs serve training, inference and interactive jobs inside Kubernetes. Run:ai 3.0 is split into four components that can be adopted separately: KAI Scheduler, GPU Fractioning Operator, KAI Resource Management and Workload Map. KAI Scheduler is licensed under Apache 2.0 and contributed to the CNCF as a Sandbox project, with development handled in the community repository. The community version is available through NVIDIA's NGC catalogue without a paid subscription, while enterprise support runs through commercial routes such as NVIDIA AI Enterprise and cloud marketplaces. Eight DSX ecosystem partners, including Crusoe, Mirantis and Nebius, are integrating the platform, and NVIDIA's utilisation claims of 10x GPU availability lack a published baseline.
