Maximizing the value of AI infrastructure demands deep visibility into GPU utilization. Yet many platform teams running AI workloads on Kubernetes operate with limited visibility into how their GPUs are used. Most don’t know who’s consuming them, how much memory is in use, and whether Kubernetes pods are pending or silently idle. Without a signal, GPU fleets are routinely underutilized and slow to surface scheduling bottlenecks until users escalate. The GPU Usage Monitor , built on the  NVIDIA Data Center GPU Manager (DCGM) Exporter , enables real-time visibility into GPU allocation, compute utilization, memory consumption, and pod status across an entire Kubernetes cluster and through a single Helm chart deployment. The observability gap in GPU-Accelerated Kubernetes clusters For site reliability engineers (SREs) and platform teams managing GPU-accelerated Kubernetes clusters, two failure modes are common and costly.…
