Nscale Cloud (GPU compute, Inference Endpoints & Managed Slurm/Kubernetes)
GPU / AI cloud
Provided by Nscale Limited
Offering overview
Hydro-powered sites in Glomfjord and Narvik, Norway anchor Nscale's own data center footprint, complemented by Loughton in the UK, Texas in the US, and partner facilities in Portugal, Iceland, and elsewhere in Norway, the UK, and the US. The company designs its own modular, liquid-cooled halls and sells the capacity through Nscale Cloud as bare metal, virtual instances, a Kubernetes service, and managed Slurm for distributed training. On top of the infrastructure layer sit AI services: serverless Inference Endpoints exposing open models such as Llama 4 Scout, GPT-OSS 20B/120B, Mixtral 8x22B, GLM, Qwen3 variants, FLUX.1 schnell, and Stable Diffusion XL; a Prompt Workbench for iteration; and a fine-tuning service. Enterprise IAM, strict tenant isolation, observability, and a Control Center for fleet operations target larger AI teams and sovereign-minded buyers. GPU cluster pricing is not published; capacity is reserved through sales in blocks of thousands of GPUs. Per-token rates for the serverless models are shown only inside the console and via the models API, so no public starting price is available.
