Production Inference at Scale with Saturn Cloud & Nebius Token Factory

If you’re deploying models to production and handling high request volumes while managing costs and latency, Nebius offers two complementary approaches. Where AWS has Bedrock and Sagemaker, Nebius has Saturn Cloud for MLOps and orchestration, and Token Factory for managed inference-as-a-service.

This post covers what Nebius provides for inference workloads, how Saturn Cloud simplifies deployment and management, and the joint integration between the two.

Infrastructure Built for Inference

Nebius provides the GPU infrastructure with competitive pricing and high-performance networking. Saturn Cloud layers on top a managed MLOps platform that handles Kubernetes orchestration, autoscaling, deployment workflows, and monitoring.

Together, this means you can spin up a development environment on H100s in seconds, deploy your model to production with one click, and let the platform automatically scale GPU nodes up or down based on actual request volume without over-provisioning or manual intervention.

Saturn Cloud + Nebius: A Complete Inference Solution

Saturn Cloud: The MLOps Platform Layer

Saturn Cloud transforms the Nebius GPU infrastructure into a complete development and production environment. The platform deploys as a managed Kubernetes cluster within your Nebius project, handling all infrastructure complexity while providing instant access to Jupyter notebooks, VS Code, and other IDEs on H100, H200, B200, and GB200 GPUs.

Development-to-production deployment happens with one click. Serve LLMs with vLLM or NVIDIA NIM, deploy APIs with FastAPI or BentoML, or host dashboards with Streamlit. The platform includes infrastructure for parallel training, massively parallel jobs, and enterprise features like SSO, team workspaces, cost tracking, and private networking within your Nebius VPC.

Nebius: AI Cloud Infrastructure

Nebius provides access to NVIDIA’s latest GPU hardware, including H100, H200, B200, and GB200. The infrastructure is purpose-built for AI workloads, with competitive pricing across on-demand and commitment-based options.

The platform includes InfiniBand networking (up to 3.2Tbit/s per host), high-speed storage (up to 100 GBps and 1M IOPS), and support for NVIDIA AI Enterprise software, including NIM microservices, NeMo, and RAPIDS. Nebius operates data centers across the US, Europe, the UK, and the Middle East with enterprise-grade security and compliance.

For teams preferring managed inference, Nebius Token Factory offers 60+ pre-optimized models with transparent per-token pricing and 99.9% uptime SLAs.

How Saturn Cloud and Nebius Work Together

The integration between Saturn Cloud and Nebius delivers a complete AI solution that encompasses both training and inference workloads.

For enterprises, Saturn Cloud Enterprise deploys directly into your Nebius account as a private cloud environment, with your own managed Kubernetes cluster, VPC integration, and custom security configurations.

Unified Development and Production

Development and production environments use the same infrastructure, eliminating environment mismatches that cause deployment issues. Code that runs in your Jupyter notebook on an H100 will run the same way in production. This significantly reduces time-to-production and debugging cycles.

Automatic Resource Management

Saturn Cloud handles cluster autoscaling on Nebius infrastructure, automatically provisioning GPU nodes based on workload demand and scaling down during idle periods. The platform includes health monitoring with automatic node replacement for continuous operation.

Flexible Inference Deployment Options

Teams can deploy inference workloads using their preferred tools. Saturn Cloud supports vLLM for high-performance LLM serving, NVIDIA NIM microservices for optimized inference, FastAPI or BentoML for custom model APIs, and Streamlit for interactive dashboards. All of these run on Nebius GPU infrastructure with the same managed experience. Users can also deploy models developed in Saturn Cloud to the Nebius Token Factory.
