ThisWay Global and Ace Computers Partner on GPU Orchestration Ahead of SC26 - HPCwire

CHICAGO, Nov. 12, 2026 — ThisWay Global Inc. (TWG), a company focused on sovereign artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure, has announced a strategic partnership with Ace Computers, a Chicago-area builder of custom computing systems since 1983. Under the reseller agreement, Ace will offer Amalgamy as a term license with the GPU systems it builds, and both companies will jointly market and sell the solution to government, academic and enterprise customers.

Utilization Illusion

The partnership addresses the 'Utilization Illusion' where much of GPU capacity goes unused despite schedulers reporting it as busy. TWG's analysis shows productive output often lands between 30 and 50 percent because conventional schedulers don't balance security, data requirements and available compute together.

Amalgamy Capabilities

Amalgamy works with existing schedulers like Slurm and Kubernetes, allowing users to describe their work while the platform selects the appropriate accelerator, stages data and runs the job. It's designed to place workloads on hardware that best fits their requirements, whether for high precision, low precision or specialized capabilities.

The vendor-agnostic platform reduces lock-in risk and supports policy administration, data-access controls, metering and evidence management. These capabilities coordinate with TWG's Sovereign Blueprint framework, which helps organizations document controls over data, models, computing resources and access.

Availability

Proof-of-concept engagements are available now through both companies, with general availability of Amalgamy v1.0 planned for Q1 2027. TWG also plans to deploy Amalgamy at the Reveille AI Compute Center (RACC) at the Texas A&M RELLIS campus in Bryan, Texas.

SC26 attendees can see Amalgamy running on Ace systems at booth #2534 at McCormick Place. Information on both Amalgamy and Ace's offerings is available through their respective websites.
