The problem
Option A
Hyperscaler GPU rental
Fast to start. Expensive to scale. Your data leaves your environment. Egress costs compound. You're renting capacity on someone else's terms, with no path to sovereignty.
Option B
DIY Kubernetes + VMware glue
You own the hardware. But you've stitched together five tools to manage it and need three engineers just to keep the lights on.
How Orion changes the math
Two types of teams come to Juno. Here's what changes for each.
Cloud & AWS
You're over-provisioning. Every month.
Cloud-first teams provision for peak and pay for idle the rest of the time. Orion replaces that with per-request autoscaling — the right node size spins up when demand arrives, GPU operators install automatically, and the cluster scales back when the work is done. No stair-step. No idle spend.
On-Prem & Data Center
Your end users shouldn't need to know Kubernetes.
On-prem teams own the hardware. But every workload request still bottlenecks through an engineer who knows K8s. Orion removes that. Workload templates define the environment once. Users request what they need, and a workstation, container, or VM is running in 60 seconds. No YAML. No ticket queue.
Not sure which fits you? Most teams are running both — cloud for burst, on-prem for everything else. Orion handles that from a single compute plane.
