**London, U. K., 20 October 2026 –**The PyTorch Foundation, the vendor-neutral home for the open source intelligence layer, is announcing today that Nscale has joined as a Platinum member. Nscale is a full-stack AI cloud platform, bringing together power, data centers, compute and software in one vertically integrated platform.
Nscale first came to the PyTorch Foundation’s project ecosystem through Ray, the open-source framework for distributed computing and scaling AI workloads. Following Nscale’s planned acquisition of Anyscale, the company behind Ray, Nscale has committed to continuing investment in Ray’s development and its contributor community, building on Ray’s governance under the Foundation since the project joined in October 2025.
“Most infrastructure providers treat the framework and the data center as two separate problems. We treat them as one. PyTorch has remained the base layer of AI because it kept the Pythonic style researchers know, while getting serious about performance.Ray, also part of the PyTorch Foundation, does something different: getting that work to run across thousands of GPUs. With Anyscale, the creators of Ray, set to join Nscale, we’re not just using that ecosystem, we’re building the infrastructure underneath it. Joining the PyTorch Foundation as a Platinum member is us backing that directly, not just benefiting from it,”said Nick Jones, VP of Cloud Native Platform Engineering, Nscale
“We are excited to welcome Nscale to the PyTorch Foundation as a Platinum Member,” said Mark Collier, Executive Director of the PyTorch Foundation. “As frontier AI workloads scale to multi-trillion parameters, seamless integration between PyTorch, distributed frameworks like Ray, and underlying cluster infrastructure is essential. Nscale’s decision to join the PyTorch Foundation demonstrates a commitment to open source, eliminating friction for developers, optimizing multi-node performance, and ensuring PyTorch runs flawlessly out-of-the-box on the world’s most advanced hardware.”
As a platinum member, Nscale is granted one seat to the PyTorch Foundation Governing Board. The Board sets policy through our bylaws, mission and vision statements, describing the overarching scope of foundation initiatives, technical vision, and direction.
We’re happy to welcome Nick Jones to our board. Nick is VP of Cloud Native Platform Engineering at Nscale, where he leads engineering strategy for its high-performance GPU cloud. He brings more than 15 years’ experience across cloud-native infrastructure, AI and high-performance computing. Over his career, including roles at SUSE, Rancher and Mesosphere, Nick has led the design and delivery of large-scale GPU cloud platforms and contributed to open-source projects spanning Kubernetes, OpenStack and distributed systems.
We’re also pleased to welcome Eyal Lantzman, VP of AI Services at Nscale to the PyTorch Foundation’s Technical Advisory Council (TAC). At Nscale, Eyal leads the AI services stack, focused on serving and optimizing large open-weight models in production. He brings more than 20 years of experience across AI/ML platforms, cloud infrastructure and developer tooling, including previous roles at JPMorgan Chase, AWS and Microsoft, with a long-standing focus on cloud security, governance and sovereignty.
