You’ve heard about the transformative power of large language models (LLMs), but your security team has made it clear: “No SaaS providers or OpenAI, our data stays in-house.” Sound familiar? You’re not alone. Many enterprises are caught between the fear of missing out on the LLM revolution and the need to protect sensitive data.

That’s where Predibase comes in. We’ve built a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) solution that lets you harness the full potential of LLMs using your sensitive internal data to build custom, domain-specific models while keeping everything securely within your own environment. No compromises, no security risks, and no maintenance headaches.

With Predibase, you don’t have to choose between innovation and security. Whether you’re fine-tuning models on proprietary data or serving them in production, we’ve designed our VPC offering to make LLMs accessible to enterprises with the strictest security and compliance requirements.

The Secure AI Solution You’ve Been Waiting For: Predibase Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

If you've tried to onboard AI SaaS products such as OpenAI, you know the challenges: complex configurations for data residency, endless compliance hurdles, and the constant fear of exposing sensitive data. At the same time, if you've tried to build your own in-house solution, you know the challenges of procuring expensive GPUs, building your systems to ensure they are always being used at 100% efficiency, and hiring the right people to both manage the infra and build the fine-tuning and serving software.

Predibase was architected from day one to support a clean separation between our managed control plane and individual private data planes. Additionally, we developed automation that helps minimize maintenance of private data planes, leading to fewer interruptions.

Here’s what that means for you:

  1. Your data never leaves your VPC. Fine-tune and serve models entirely within your private cloud environment and run AI Gateways directly in your VPC to securely manage access to third-party models. 
  2. No maintenance burden. We manage the infrastructure, so your team can focus on building value, not managing servers. 
  3. Custom models, tailored to your needs. Instead of spending months building and maintaining your own training and inference solution in-house, Predibase enables you to train and deploy models that are specifically tuned for your use case—without the heavy lifting. 
  4. Enhanced data protection. Combined with a secure data foundation from Rubrik, Predibase and Rubrik provide a unique set of capabilities not available from other solutions like rollbacks on adverse agent actions at the data layer with Agent Rewind.

Predibase’s VPC isn’t just about security; it’s about unlocking the potential of LLMs for enterprises that thought they couldn’t participate.

Key Advantages of Predibase’s VPC

  • Security and Isolation: Predibase’s VPC ensures complete isolation of data and applications from the public internet with direct ingress. This creates a private link between your models and data in your cloud minimizing exposure to threats and unauthorized access. This is especially critical for industries like healthcare and finance, where data sensitivity is paramount. By keeping your data and AI workloads entirely within your VPC, Predibase provides a secure environment that meets the highest standards of data protection.
  • Compliance Simplified: With Predibase’s VPC, businesses can achieve compliance with industry regulations such as SOC 2 Type II without the need to list Predibase as a data subprocessor. This simplifies the compliance process, especially for companies with stringent data protection standards.
  • Operational Efficiency: Predibase fully manages the underlying infrastructure, including software upgrades and security patches, so your DevOps team can focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine maintenance. This hands-off approach ensures your Predibase Data Plane is always up-to-date with the latest features and security best practices, without requiring constant oversight.
  • Scalability and Flexibility: Predibase's VPC solutions are scalable, allowing businesses to adjust resources as needed without compromising security or performance. The flexibility to choose between different deployment models, such as fully isolated environments or internet-facing setups, allows companies to tailor their infrastructure to their specific needs.
  • Cost-Effective: Predibase natively autoscales GPU workloads in your VPC to ensure you are never overpaying for GPUs that you aren't using. This includes both finetuning jobs and inference servers.

Predibase’s commitment to providing a robust, flexible, and user-friendly VPC environment means that businesses can leverage the benefits of cloud computing securely and efficiently, adapting to their changing needs without the burden of managing complex IT infrastructure.
