ME AI News: On September 3, 2026, the PyTorch Foundation announced that Lablup has joined as a Silver Member to advance open-source AI. Lablup develops software that powers AI applications across environments ranging from desktops to data centers. Its product, Backend.AI, is an AI infrastructure management platform that achieves precise GPU partitioning through container-level GPU virtualization—intercepting CUDA API calls within containers—to increase GPU utilization from 30% to 85% and reduce infrastructure costs by 75%. The platform supports four-level multi-tenancy management, air-gapped environment operation, and a Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) that unifies management of over 12 AI accelerators, including NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, Google TPU, Rebellions, and FuriosaAI. It also employs the Sokovan scheduler, enabling scalability to thousands of nodes. (Source: InFoQ)
