CHICAGO, July 28, 2025 — Parallel Works, a provider of the ACTIVATE control plane for hybrid multi-cloud computing resources, today announced the launch of its ACTIVATE AI Partner Ecosystem. This connected and flexible AI ecosystem accelerates AI infrastructure innovation, simplifies operations and supports next-generation AI at-scale.

As the control plane for the next generation of AI infrastructure, ACTIVATE AI provides unified access to neocloud platforms and orchestration tools with vendor-neutral, flexible deployment options across hybrid computing environments.

“The global surge in AI adoption – from large language models to domain-specific applications – is driving demand for more than just GPU access. Organizations need flexible, integrated ecosystems to build, train and deploy AI at scale,” said Matthew Shaxted, Parallel Works CEO. “Traditional infrastructure is too rigid, and managing fragmented tools across clouds slows innovation. Our Partner Ecosystem, combined with ACTIVATE AI, provides unified access to specialized compute – enabling an open, scalable AI ecosystem that puts control back in the hands of the user.”

As AI workloads grow more complex, dynamic and seamless integration with top neocloud GPU providers is foundational to a growing ecosystem. By partnering with a diverse set of GPU providers and orchestrating AI workloads across hybrid environments, the ACTIVATE AI Partner Ecosystem Program provides organizations with vendor-neutral, flexible deployment options across hybrid compute environments, including:

  • Unified Access to Specialized Compute: Whether training large language models (LLMs) or deploying real-time inference, users can access a variety of GPU types – without being tied to a single vendor.
  • Orchestration Across the AI Stack: By abstracting away infrastructure complexity, users can focus on model development rather than DevOps. The platform integrates with container-based workflows (e.g., Kubernetes), CI/CD pipelines and data tools.
  • Multi-Cloud and Hybrid Freedom: Vendor neutral support of hybrid and multi-cloud deployments gives organizations the power to move AI workloads across environments based on evolving requirements.
  • Resource Optimization and Collaboration: The ACTIVATE AI ecosystem supports intelligent workload placement, shared resource pools and budgeting controls.
  • Ecosystem-Driven Innovation: ACTIVATE AI is designed to integrate with a growing ecosystem of AI tools, platforms and services, providing users with access to the best innovations in AI infrastructure without being locked into a rigid solution stack.

A Partner Ecosystem for AI Innovation

The ACTIVATE AI Partner Ecosystem Program offers access to cutting-edge GPU capacity via neoclouds and aggregators, providing secure access to Kubernetes environments with GPU pooling, as well as vendor-neutral, distributed object storage. Channel partners can also integrate ACTIVATE AI control plane for hybrid cloud bursting with distributed storage.
