Managed K8s with GPU Virtual Machine
Overview
FPT Cloud provides Kubernetes using NVIDIA GPUs with the following key features:
-
Flexible GPU configuration with multiple GPU types, optional GPU memory, applied per Worker Group.
-
Automated management and provisioning of GPU resources in Kubernetes with NVIDIA Operator.
Visualization and monitoring of GPUs using NVIDIA DCGM.
-
Automatically scale containers/nodes with Autoscaler when application demand for GPU resources increases/decreases.
-
Support GPU sharing with the Multi-Instance mechanism, helping to optimize GPU resource and cost usage.
FPT Cloud uses NVIDIA GPU Operator to provide tools for automatically managing all the software components needed to use GPUs on Kubernetes. GPU Operator allows users to use GPU resources just like they use CPUs in a Kubernetes cluster.
The Operator's components include:
- NVIDIA Drivers (CUDA, MIG, etc.)
- NVIDIA Device Plugin
- NVIDIA Container Toolkit
- NVIDIA GPU Feature Discovery
- NVIDIA Data Center GPU Manager (Monitoring)
In the Hanoi 2 and Japan regions, FPT Cloud currently supports Kubernetes using Nvidia H100 GPUs and Nvidia H200 GPUs

Example:
- If you select the single strategy configuration: all-1g.10gb, the H100 GPU card on the worker is divided into 7 mig-devices with logical GPU resources (equal to 1/7 of the physical GPU) and 10GB of GPU RAM.
Note:
MIG configuration applies to all cards attached to the worker. The MIG strategy on worker groups within the same cluster must be the same type (single/mixed/none).
