Bud Ecosystem, a generative AI software stack company, has partnered with NxtGen Cloud Technologies Pvt Ltd to address two of the most common challenges businesses face when adopting AI: high infrastructure costs and lack of in-house expertise.
As part of this collaboration, Bud’s AI Foundry will be integrated into NxtGen’s cloud platform, giving companies a single, user-friendly interface to manage their GenAI workloads. This means enterprises will no longer need to rely on multiple tools for performance, security, compliance, and analytics.
Speaking about the need for such a solution, Joseph Linson, CSO of Bud Ecosystem, said: “Most organisations that lack on-premises AI hardware have been forced to choose between the premium pricing of global cloud providers—often prohibitive for mid-market players—and the complexity of building bespoke AI clusters in-house.”
This new alliance introduces a third choice: a pay-as-you-go GenAI environment with model-as-a-service features and outcome-based pricing. It is designed to provide enterprise-grade performance without the burden of premium costs.
The offering also includes Bud’s inference stack for deploying large language models, pre-built AI agents for routine business tasks, and a catalogue of compact models customised for enterprise and edge applications.
The announcement comes shortly after NxtGen introduced ‘M’, an open AI platform powered by Bud Stack and hosted on NxtGen’s sovereign cloud. Marketed as India’s answer to ChatGPT, ‘M’ is positioned as a secure and high-performance AI solution free from vendor lock-in.
