# The Next Evolution of Kubernetes: GPU-Centric Infrastructure (Fujitsu)

## Author's thesis
AI platforms must shift from CPU-centric to GPU-centric infrastructure because of soaring GPU, memory, and electricity costs; the proposed mechanism is dynamic resource composition — software that scales composable hardware up and down to match workload. The news is that Fujitsu's composable-orchestration project has been accepted as a CNCF Sandbox project. The cost framing is specific and sound; the technical claims carry no measurements at all.
## Key arguments (≤3)
1. **The cost decomposition is specific and correct**: naming GPU, memory, *and* electricity separately as distinct cost drivers — treating power as a capital line item rather than an operating footnote — is what makes the efficiency conclusion follow rather than merely sound prudent.
2. **Dynamic composition is the right shape of answer**: static provisioning wastes the expensive resource during idle periods; composing hardware to workload attacks exactly that waste, at least in principle.
3. **The announcement is honestly scoped as early-stage**: CNCF Sandbox now, Incubating as the stated goal — not overclaimed as production-ready — but the technical claim underneath it (optimized utilization with efficient power consumption) has zero supporting measurement.
## Claim atoms
### Fujitsu's composable orchestrator enters CNCF Sandbox

> one of the biggest news is that it it has been approved as CNCF Sandbox project.
**Where/why**: The announcement, roughly two minutes in. The project name is unrecoverable from auto-captions ("Codi"/"Cording") — find it via the CNCF Sandbox listing. Sandbox is the entry tier: foundation interest, not production validation.
## Permanent candidates
- **Electricity belongs in the capital cost model, not the operating footnote** — once power is named alongside hardware as a primary cost of compute, efficiency stops being good practice and becomes the term that determines what the platform can afford to run. Strong candidate: cleanly generalizes and connects to the AI-cost/tokenomics thread already developing in the vault.
## Processing checklist
- [ ] Look up the Fujitsu composable-infrastructure project in the actual CNCF Sandbox listing to get its real name and any published utilization data
- [x] Connect into the relevant MOC — [[3. Resources/MOCs/AI Cost & Tokenomics MOC]]
