Building a Sovereign Multi-GPU AI Infrastructure in a European Data Center (in Less Than One Year)
How a startup built a sovereign multi‑GPU AI platform in under a year, using Kubernetes, Ray actors, MongoDB, and LoRA finetuning at IONOS.

How does a one-year-old startup build a production-ready, multi-tenant AI finetuning platform and deploy it in Europe’s leading cloud provider’s data center? I’ll walk through the technical architecture and hard-earned lessons from manufactAI’s journey to launching the IONOS AI Model Studio—a fully sovereign platform handling LoRA training and inference across GPU clusters.
