1/13/2025 - Namla Now Supports Nvidia NIMs for Accelerating Generative AI Adoption

The transformative power of Generative AI (GenAI) is undeniable, with industries across the globe striving to leverage its potential. Today, we are excited to announce that Namla, our cutting-edge Edge Orchestration platform, can now be used to deploy Nvidia NIMs (Nvidia Inference Microservices). This integration simplifies and accelerates the deployment of AI GenAI models with ready-to-use inference containers.

The Challenge of Scaling Nvidia NIMs

Nvidia NIMs (NVIDIA NIM: Production-Ready APIs That Run Anywhere) provide pre-trained models and inference capabilities optimized for diverse AI workloads. While NIMs offer incredible potential, scaling them to production-ready infrastructure presents significant challenges for organizations.

To fully harness the power of NIMs, businesses need a robust system to:

• 1. Deploy and manage the underlying GPU infrastructure, which can consist of thousands of distributed nodes (on-premise, cloud, or edge).
• 2. Efficiently deploy and manage NIMs across this infrastructure, ensuring high availability, seamless updates, and optimal performance.
• 3. Automate infrastructure scaling and updates: Organizations often struggle with dynamically scaling their infrastructure to meet AI workload demands while ensuring that updates are deployed seamlessly without disrupting operations.

However, with current tools, this process is often fragmented and complex. Organizations typically face hurdles such as:

Lack of unified orchestration:

Managing thousands of nodes and NIM instances across distributed environments requires piecing together multiple tools, leading to inefficiencies. This patchwork approach not only increases the risk of misconfigurations but also creates operational silos that limit collaboration and slow down response times. Without a unified orchestration platform, scaling AI workloads becomes a cumbersome process that hinders innovation.

Limited observability:

Monitoring the infrastructure, GPU utilization, and deployed AI applications is challenging without a comprehensive platform. Current tools often provide fragmented insights, making it difficult for organizations to identify and resolve performance bottlenecks or resource allocation issues. This lack of holistic visibility can result in underutilized resources, degraded performance, and missed opportunities to optimize AI workloads.

Operational overhead:

Frequent manual interventions, lack of automation, and insufficient security add to the complexity, delaying time to value. Teams are often forced to spend significant time on routine maintenance tasks, such as patch management and system updates, diverting resources from strategic initiatives. Moreover, inconsistent security practices across distributed environments expose organizations to potential risks, further complicating operations.

Enter Namla: Simplifying NIMs Deployment and Management

Namla is an Edge Orchestration platform designed to simplify the deployment and management of distributed infrastructure and orchestrate AI applications. Built on Kubernetes, Namla provides a powerful and reliable framework for managing modern AI workloads at scale.

With our latest enhancement, Namla now supports the seamless deployment of Nvidia NIMs using Kubernetes operators. This integration allows organizations to easily deploy pre-trained models, accelerate inferencing tasks, and scale their GenAI capabilities without the operational headaches of traditional methods.

Deploy NIMs directly from Namla

With Namla, users can now browse the Namla NIM Store, select a NIM, and deploy it with ready-to-use Kubernetes manifests. This feature significantly reduces the complexity and time required to deploy and manage NIMs. By providing a seamless deployment process, Namla ensures that enterprises can focus on leveraging AI models for business outcomes rather than dealing with operational challenges.
