Fully managed private AI solution combines cutting-edge AI capabilities with enterprise-grade security and privacy protections

SAN ANTONIO, March 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rackspace Technology® (NASDAQ: RXT), a leading end-to-end hybrid cloud and AI solutions company, today announced Rackspace AI Business, a versatile, secure and high-performance AI-optimized hybrid cloud platform that targets customers with AI training and inferencing requirements to unlock the full potential of AI. 

In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, enterprises face unprecedented challenges in deploying and scaling their AI initiatives. The complexity of managing AI workloads across diverse environments, coupled with the need for specialized infrastructure and expertise, has become a significant barrier to realizing the full potential of artificial intelligence technologies. As AI becomes mission-critical for business operations, the need for a flexible, high-performance platform that seamlessly operates across hybrid environments has never been more urgent. 

Rackspace AI Business meets this critical market need by providing a private cloud solution engineered explicitly for AI workloads. By combining cutting-edge infrastructure with deep AI expertise from the Foundry for AI by Rackspace (FAIR™), this innovative platform enables organizations to overcome deployment challenges, accelerate time-to-value, and scale their AI initiatives confidently—all while maintaining the security, compliance, and performance standards that enterprise operations demand.  

"Our Rackspace AI Business platform is for organizations seeking innovative and secure AI implementations, and it empowers organizations to seize new opportunities, support decision-making, and stay at the forefront of today's data-driven IT landscape," said Lance Weaver, Chief Product and Technology Officer, Rackspace Technology. "The Rackspace Technology approach to AI represents the future of AI implementation, where proximity, security, and technological excellence converge."
