Global computing infrastructure leader selects Rafay to deliver customized turnkey AI software environment to hyperscalers, neoclouds, and enterprise off-takers worldwide
Sunnyvale, California, April 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Rafay Systems, a global provider of AI infrastructure orchestration solutions, today announced that Argentum AI has selected the Rafay platform to power its rapidly expanding AI infrastructure business. The partnership will enable Argentum to deliver differentiated and customized computing environments to the world’s largest AI operators, including hyperscalers, neoclouds, and enterprise-scale GPU takers, through a single integrated software orchestration layer.
Argentum AI secures and deploys purpose-built AI infrastructure at scale, with data center sites ranging from 10MW to over 100MW and access to over 3GW of total power capacity in the US, Europe, and rapidly expanding worldwide. The company provides GPU supply, managed services, and enterprise-grade orchestration as fully integrated turnkey solutions for hyperscalers, frontier AI labs, and Fortune 500 companies that require dedicated sovereign computing at scale. Each deployment will be fully financed through an SPV structure backed by Blackstone, JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs, delivering zero balance sheet exposure to customers and a single counterparty and a unified SLA. From contract to actual infrastructure in weeks instead of months.
The operational challenges at the heart of this partnership increase as scale increases. Each provider requires a separate baseline software stack, and delivering and maintaining these stacks individually across a growing global portfolio can quickly become unmanageable. Rafay’s platform solves this problem by allowing Argentum to provision, configure, and manage separate software environments for each offtaker through a single control plane, greatly simplifying operations while maintaining the flexibility each customer requires.
Market forces driving demand for this type of solution are important. Global spending on AI infrastructure is expected to reach $758 billion by 2029, according to IDC’s Worldwide Quarterly Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Tracker, which also found that spending on AI compute and storage hardware increased 166% year-over-year to $82 billion in the second quarter of 2025 alone. Separately, Gartner predicts that global end-user spending on AI-optimized infrastructure as a service will total $37.5 billion in 2026, as GPU-accelerated cloud resources become central to large-scale model training and inference. For infrastructure operators like Argentum, seizing this opportunity requires the ability to respond quickly and reliably to diverse customer requirements, and the Rafay platform is built to do just that.
said Haseeb Budhani, CEO and Co-Founder of Rafay Systems. “Rafay has built a strong track record of helping organizations deploying AI computing at scale bring scalable cloud management to their GPU fleets.” They require the same kind of multi-tenant, configurable software orchestration that we are perfecting for builders, so this partnership demonstrates the breadth of use cases that Rafay can deliver across the AI infrastructure ecosystem, supporting infrastructure intermediaries to access GPU capacity on a global scale as effectively as we support them.” token A factory is built on top of it. ”
This partnership positions Argentum for its next phase of growth. The company has announced plans to build its own neocloud offering, and the Rafay platform is designed to support that evolution without requiring changes to the software infrastructure. Argentum can grow from an infrastructure broker to a full-fledged cloud service provider on the same platform, eliminating the costs and disruptions associated with future technology migrations.
“Argentum’s mission is to be the fastest and most flexible provider of turnkey GPU and power capacity for the world’s largest AI operators, and Rafay is helping us accelerate our growth,” said Andrew Sovko, CEO of Argentum AI. “We have built a global base of high-capacity data center sites and operational expertise to deliver customized computing environments exactly when and at scale for each customer. What we needed was a software orchestration partner who could meet that ambition. Rafay has given us the tools to provide an individually tailored software environment to every off-taker in our portfolio without increasing operational overhead, allowing us to continue to lead this market and provide the scale and precision required by our world-class AI infrastructure.” ”
