Sensaka for AI Data Centers

    AI Infrastructure Management for AI Data Centers and AI Factories

    AI infrastructure management on one on-premises platform: ask the AI Cockpit a question in plain language and get a custom dashboard and a 30-second data video, built from the same inventory that runs your GPU pools, jobs, facility monitoring and metering.

    Sensaka for AI Data Centers connects AI infrastructure, heterogeneous compute resources, GPU clusters, training and inference workloads, networks, storage, liquid cooling systems, and operational processes in one platform. It transforms fragmented computing resources into business capabilities that can be monitored, scheduled, measured, and continuously optimized.

    From liquid cooling systems, servers, and accelerator cards in the data center to resource pools, workload scheduling, alarms, service tickets, CMDB, cost metering, and operational analytics, the platform builds a unified operational loop on top of a shared data foundation.

    AI Data Centers Have Entered the Operations Stage

    From Infrastructure Delivery to Continuous Operations

    Once an AI data center has been built, management priorities shift from infrastructure delivery and hardware quantity to compute utilization, workload success rates, service quality, operating costs, and business output.

    Traditional monitoring platforms can usually tell operators whether a device is online. They cannot easily explain whether computing resources are being used effectively, why training jobs are waiting, whether low GPU utilization is caused by compute, network, or storage bottlenecks, or which workloads and business services will be affected by a hardware failure.

    Sensaka for AI Data Centers connects five operational dimensions: people, physical infrastructure, activities, compute resources, and business services.

    It brings infrastructure status, computing resources, workload relationships, service delivery, staff responsibility, and operational workflows into one unified management environment, helping organizations move from an infrastructure delivery model to continuous AI data center operations.

    AI Cockpit

    Ask a Question, Get a Dashboard and a 30-Second Data Video

    Fixed dashboards answer the questions someone planned for. The AI Cockpit answers the one asked today. Type a question in plain language, and the platform builds a natural-language dashboard for it from the data it already holds, then renders it as a short video when the board is too dense to talk through.

    01

    Ask

    Type a question or keywords, such as which GPUs are idle or which tenants are close to quota.

    02

    Match

    The question is matched locally to preset operational questions, each with its data source, rule, threshold and suggested action.

    03

    Board

    A custom dashboard is built for that question: top items, breakdowns and comparisons, each drilling down to the records.

    04

    Video

    One click renders the board as a 30-second data video in the browser, ready for a management meeting.

    Runs on-premises. Questions are matched locally, no external language model is called, and operational data stays in your data center.

    The video is drawn and encoded in the browser with captions taken from the board's own numbers, so it says exactly what the board shows.

    The AI Cockpit: a typed question, the board it builds, and the 30-second data video.
    Platform Architecture

    Collection, Data, Services and Cockpit on One Data Set

    The platform is built in layers. Collection reads the physical estate in band and out of band. A single data foundation holds CMDB relationships, time series, events and usage records. Services for pools, jobs, metering, alerts, tickets and workflows run on that data, and the cockpits sit on top. Integration interfaces connect each layer to the clouds and tools you already run.

    Explore GPU Pool Operations
    GPU Resource Scheduling

    Turn GPU Hardware into Allocatable Computing Resources

    Sensaka abstracts physical accelerator cards into resource pools and manages training, inference, and development workloads through standardized specifications, tenant quotas, workload queues, and scheduling policies.

    The platform offers capacity as standard specs, applies tenant quotas in GPU-hours, tokens and storage, queues requests by priority with preemption, and releases resources automatically when a workload completes or times out. These capabilities help AI data centers and AI factories reduce fragmentation, idle resources, and inefficient allocation.

    New servers reach the pool through automated bare-metal provisioning: BMC setup, PXE operating system install, drivers and runtime, and a burn-in gate that keeps failing hardware out.

    Core Capabilities

    • Heterogeneous compute resource pooling
    • Resource specifications for training, inference, and development
    • Training and inference workload classification
    • Workload queue management
    • Project and tenant quota controls
    • Allocation by standard spec against tenant quotas
    • Priority, resource weight, and node filling strategies
    • Automatic resource release after completion or timeout
    • Faulty node isolation with operator confirmation
    • Idle GPU detection against a utilization threshold you set
    • Bare-metal provisioning with a burn-in gate before a server joins the pool

    Business Value

    Improve GPU utilization, reduce over allocation and idle capacity, and prioritize computing resources for the highest value workloads.

    Explore GPU Pool Operations

    Resource pools: accelerator models, standard specs, allocated and idle capacity.
    Job and Workload Operations

    Follow Every Training Job and Inference Service From Queue to Release

    Sensaka reads jobs from Slurm and Kubernetes and shows them in one view. Each queued job carries its queue reason, each running job the GPUs, nodes and containers it holds, and each finished job its GPU-hours and, if it failed, a classified failure reason.

    For long training runs, the platform flags degrading GPUs before they fail, shows when and where the last checkpoint was written, forces a checkpoint before preemption and measures the training time an interruption cost.

    Core Capabilities

    • Queue reasons, priority and preemption per job
    • GPUs, nodes and containers held by each job
    • GPU utilization, power and health per training job
    • GPU-hours per job against the tenant quota
    • Job success rate and classified failure reasons
    • Degradation signals: memory ECC, NVLink errors, slow GPUs
    • Checkpoint timing, location and write duration
    • Time to first token, throughput and error rate per model service

    Business Value

    Shorten the time from a slow or failed job to its cause, and keep one failing card from costing a multi-day training run.

    Explore AI Workload Operations
    Sensaka job scheduling table: task name, type, submitting tenant, requested flavor, assigned node, queue reason and status for running, queued and failed training and inference jobs, 177 jobs paginated
    Jobs: queue reasons, priority, resources and GPU-hours per job.
    GPU and Container Correlation

    Trace Every Workload to the Accelerator Card

    The platform establishes dynamic relationships between workloads, containers, GPUs, nodes, and resource pools. Operators can identify which containers are using a specific GPU and view which accelerator cards have been assigned to a particular container.

    Sensaka also monitors requested GPU memory, resource limits, and actual peak consumption, while recording GPU binding and release events for resource analysis, incident investigation, and auditing.

    Core Capabilities

    • Bidirectional GPU and container lookup
    • GPU UUID and container relationship mapping
    • GPU binding and release timelines
    • Requested, limited, and peak container memory analysis
    • Identification of high allocation and low utilization workloads
    • Correlation between container failures and resource overcommitment
    Compute, Network and Storage Coordination

    Analyze GPUs, Training Networks, and Storage on One Timeline

    Low GPU utilization does not always indicate insufficient compute demand. Network packet loss, inadequate storage throughput, slow data loading, or hardware problems may force GPUs to wait and leave expensive computing resources idle.

    Sensaka brings GPU utilization, network throughput, packet loss, errors and port state, storage throughput, IOPS, read and write latency, and node health together on a shared operational timeline.

    Core Capabilities

    • Time aligned analysis of GPU, network, and storage metrics
    • Training network packet loss, error and port state counters
    • Storage throughput, IOPS, and latency analysis
    • Data loading and checkpoint write bottleneck identification
    • Combined temperature, power, ECC, and hardware health analysis
    • A four stage operational loop covering monitoring, analysis, diagnostics, and scheduling
    • Recommendation generation, authorized execution, and operational auditing

    Business Value

    Quickly identify whether a performance problem comes from compute, network, storage, or hardware infrastructure.

    Reduce cross team investigation time and lower the risk of long running training jobs being interrupted, restarted, or left consuming resources without productive output.

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is AI infrastructure management?

    AI infrastructure management is the work of keeping an AI data center or AI factory productive: knowing where every accelerator is and what state it is in, allocating GPU capacity fairly, following jobs, watching power and cooling, and accounting for GPU-hours and tokens. Sensaka does this on one platform with one inventory.

    Does the AI Cockpit use an external AI model?

    No. The AI Cockpit matches questions locally against preset operational questions and builds the board and video from data already in the platform. It runs on-premises, and your data does not leave the data center.

    Which accelerators does the platform support?

    NVIDIA, AMD and other accelerators. Supported models and fields depend on each vendor's management interfaces and are confirmed for your hardware in the scoping call before a pilot.

    Is Sensaka GPU monitoring software or a scheduler?

    It is GPU monitoring software and an operations platform that works with your schedulers. Sensaka reads jobs from Slurm and Kubernetes, manages pools, specs and quotas, and monitors the hardware and facility underneath; it does not replace the scheduler you run.
