Connectbase Announces Upcoming Launch of GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) Commerce -- Federating Connectivity and Compute to Power the AI Economy

BOSTON, Oct. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Connectbase, the platform for how the connected world transacts, today announced plans to launch GPU-as-a-Service (GPUaaS) capabilities within its Federated Ecosystem Fabric, expanding its platform beyond connectivity into the monetization of AI infrastructure.

The launch will enable providers, MSPs, carriers, and distributors (TSDs) to digitize and monetize GPU capacity directly within the same ecosystem where connectivity is discovered, quoted, and sold. GPUaaS will bring together compute, connectivity, and compliance — creating a unified, scalable foundation for the next generation of AI-driven services.

Federating Connectivity and Compute

Connectbase has built the world's first Federated Ecosystem Fabric — an API-first platform that unifies how the ecosystem discovers, transacts, and monetizes infrastructure across connectivity and AI.

With GPUaaS, Connectbase will extend its platform beyond bandwidth to include AI-ready compute, allowing providers to:

• Expose GPU inventory through a single API, alongside network and colocation assets.
• Bundle GPUaaS with connectivity and data center services, creating turnkey AI infrastructure offerings.
• Enable sovereign, compliant AI deployment through governance, data locality, and SLA enforcement.
• Engage enterprise AI demand within a trusted, pre-integrated ecosystem.

"The launch of GPUaaS expands what the Connectbase platform enables," said Trey Willis, CTO Connectbase. "We're bringing compute and connectivity together — helping providers and partners turn stranded GPU capacity into monetized, AI-driven opportunity across the global ecosystem."

Why Connectivity Is the Foundation for AI

AI workloads depend on network precision, performance, and sovereignty. Connectbase's connectivity fabric provides the foundation GPU infrastructure requires to deliver high performance and compliance at scale.

Unlike isolated GPU marketplaces, Connectbase's federated model ensures that compute, compliance, and connectivity operate as one — giving providers control, partners scale, and enterprises trust.

• Connectivity drives performance. Low-latency networking is essential for AI workload efficiency and inference speed.
• Federation drives scale. Connectbase's ecosystem spans 400+ global providers, enabling immediate exposure of GPU capacity across millions of enterprise buyers.
• Compliance builds trust. Built-in governance and data sovereignty help enterprises deploy AI workloads securely and confidently.

Revenue and Growth Across the Ecosystem

GPUaaS opens new revenue pathways for every segment of the ecosystem:

• Wholesale suppliers can increase GPU utilization by 20–30%, unlocking millions in new ARR without additional infrastructure investment.
• Reseller MSPs and telcos can differentiate with GPUaaS + connectivity bundles, achieving 2–3x more enterprise revenue and 40% faster sales cycles.
• Enterprises gain compliant, sovereign AI infrastructure that reduces regulatory risk, cuts costs by 20–25%, and improves workload performance by 30–50%.
• Channel partners (TSDs) can expand their portfolios, driving 10–15% incremental revenue growth and 35% faster attach rates in enterprise sales.

"Connectivity is at the core of every AI opportunity," Willis added. "GPUaaS allows our partners — from carriers to TSDs — to tap into the AI economy using the same federated workflows they already trust. We're enabling revenue growth and ecosystem expansion without operational friction."

Building the Foundation for AI Infrastructure Monetization

Connectbase's upcoming GPUaaS launch marks a key milestone in its mission to digitize how the world's infrastructure is transacted. By bridging connectivity and compute, Connectbase enables providers, partners, and enterprises to collaborate in a single ecosystem — turning underutilized assets into revenue-generating digital services. According to NVIDIA's State of AI in
Telecommunications report, 97% of telcos are already investing in AI initiatives, yet nearly 60% of global GPU capacity remains underutilized, highlighting both the scale of adoption and the urgent need for infrastructure monetization.

"We're helping the ecosystem participate in AI growth, not just observe it," Ben Edmond, CEO & Founder said. "GPUaaS will empower every segment; suppliers, carriers, MSPs, and channels, to monetize infrastructure, increase utilization, and capture the expanding demand for AI-ready services."
