What is ComputeOps
DevOps had a name before it had tools. The discipline of operating AI compute deserves the same.
ComputeOps is the intelligent operation of AI infrastructure, the new software category GPUVerse is creating.
What ComputeOps is
ComputeOps is the discipline of deploying, operating, securing, monitoring, optimizing, and automating AI infrastructure across any compute environment. It combines Deployment, Automation, Security, Observability, Optimization, Governance, and Autonomous Operations, across every cloud.
Why now
Each generation of computing has simplified the one before it, assembly to high-level languages, physical servers to cloud, VMs to containers, containers to platforms. The next transformation makes infrastructure itself autonomous. ComputeOps is the discipline for that shift.
A new category, in good company
| Discipline | Transformed |
|---|---|
| DevOps | Software delivery |
| SecOps | Security operations |
| FinOps | Cloud cost management |
| MLOps | Machine-learning workflows |
| ComputeOps | AI infrastructure |
The thesis
Organizations will eventually hire AI infrastructure engineers before human ones, and GPUVerse intends to become that engineer.Further reading: What is ComputeOps? A definition of the discipline on the GPUVerse blog, the long-form version of this chapter, with the principles and the DevOps / MLOps / FinOps boundaries.
