LLM Operations Consulting Switzerland

VSHN deploys and operates LLM workloads on APPUiO (our managed Kubernetes platform), Red Hat OpenShift, enterprise private cloud infrastructure, and sovereign cloud partners. We work with vLLM for high-throughput inference, LiteLLM for multi-provider gateways, and llm-d for distributed serving. All platforms run on Swiss or European data centres with up to 99.99% uptime SLA.

VSHN operates on multiple Swiss cloud providers including Exoscale and Cloudscale, as well as European sovereign cloud partners. For organisations that need GPU-accelerated workloads, we work with providers offering GPU instances in Swiss data centres on public and private cloud. All infrastructure is managed under a single SLA with 24/7 support from our operations team.

Every engagement starts with a free architecture consultation where we assess your model serving needs, GPU requirements, and compliance constraints. VSHN then delivers a written scope document with a fixed-price or time-and-materials quote in CHF. Typical engagements cover cluster design, inference stack deployment, observability setup with Prometheus and Grafana, and backup automation for model artefacts and configuration data. There is no commitment at the scoping stage.

We configure Kubernetes GPU scheduling with NVIDIA device plugins, resource quotas, and pod priority classes so your inference workloads get the GPU time they need. Horizontal pod autoscaling adjusts replica counts based on request queue depth or latency targets. For batch training jobs, we set up preemptible scheduling to optimise cost without blocking interactive inference.

Yes. VSHN operates PostgreSQL with the pgvector extension as a fully managed service through our Application Catalog. You get automated daily backups, point-in-time recovery, high-availability replicas, and up to 99.99% SLA as all our managed database services. We also support dedicated search indices for hybrid retrieval workflows.

All infrastructure runs in Swiss data centres operated by Swiss or European sovereign cloud providers. Training data, model weights, vector embeddings, and inference logs never leave the chosen jurisdiction. All operational access is from Switzerland-based engineers, and we provide audit trails for compliance reporting. See our sovereignty assessment for details on how VSHN scores against the EU Cloud Sovereignty Framework.

We support both. For open-source models such as Llama, Mistral, and Falcon, we deploy Kubernetes-native serving infrastructure with vLLM or llm-d. For commercial APIs like Anthropic Claude or OpenAI, we set up LiteLLM gateways that route requests through Swiss infrastructure while enforcing budget controls and audit logging. VSHN handles the infrastructure layer so your data science team can focus on model quality.

VSHN integrates Prometheus and Grafana into every managed platform, with custom dashboards for LLM-specific metrics: inference latency (p50, p95, p99), tokens per second, GPU utilisation, queue depth, and estimated cost per request. Alerting rules notify your team and our 24/7 operations centre when metrics breach thresholds, so performance issues are caught before they affect users.

Contact us through the form below for a free initial consultation. VSHN has operated production Kubernetes platforms since 2014 for banks, insurers, and SaaS companies across Switzerland - LLM operations builds on that same infrastructure and team. We assess your workloads, platform requirements, and compliance constraints, then propose an architecture with a clear scope and pricing. Most customers go from consultation to a running production platform in four to six weeks, with ongoing 24/7 operations support.
