- 깃랩 “개발자 도구 비용 최대 100배 증가”…AI 시대 과금 구조 대전환
깃랩의 CEO 빌 스테이플스는 “지난 1년 동안 기업의 개발자 플랫폼 서비스 월 비용이 좌석당 수십 달러에서 수백 달러 수준으로 상승했으며, 향후 수천 달러에 이를 것으로 보인다”며 “AI 기반 소프트웨어 개발 도구의 과금 방식에 구조적인 변화가 나타나고 있다”고 밝혔다. 스테이플스는 고객, 투자자, 임직원에게 보낸 ‘깃랩 액트 2(GitLab Act 2)’라는 공개 서한 에서 “AI 에이전트가 병렬로 머지 요청을 생성하고, 24시간 내내 파이프라인을 실행하며, 인간 팀이 한 번도 달성하지 못한 속도로 커밋을 생성하고 있다”고 설명했다. 이어 이러한 변화가 비용 증가의 핵심 요인이라고 덧붙였다. 해당 서한에 따르면 깃랩은 올해 초 AI 에이전트 작업에 대해 사용량 기반 과금(consumption pricing)을 도입했으며, 앞으로는 사용량 기반과 구독형 과금을 혼합해 적용할 수 있도록 할 계획이다. 이번 발표는 소프트웨어 기업들이 자율형 AI 시스템 중심으로 사업 구조를 재편하고, 사용량 기반 과금 모델로 전환하는 흐름 속에서 나왔다. 앞서 경쟁사 깃허브는 AI 코딩 도구 코파일럿의 과금 체계를 사용량 기반으로 전환했으며, AI 기반 코딩 작업 증가로 인프라 수요가 확대된 데 따른 조치다. 이와 함께 마이크로소프트(MS), 메타, 오라클 등 주요 기술 기업들도 AI 투자 확대 전략과 연계된 조직 재편을 발표한 바 있다. 비용 상승의 배경 시장조사업체 가트너의 수석 애널리스트 니티시 타야기는 “현재 변화는 구조적인 전환이며, 근본적인 원인은 컴퓨팅 자원 사용량 증가”라고 분석했다. 이어 “대부분의 AI 코딩 에이전트 공급업체가 사용량 기반 과금 모델로 이동하고 있으며, 이 흐름은 더 이상 스타트업에만 국한되지 않는다”고 설명했다. 가트너는 2028년까지 AI 코딩 비용이 평균 개발자 연봉을 넘어설 것으로 전망했다. 이는 대형 언어모델(LLM)의 토큰 사용량 증가와 사용량 기반 라이선스 확산이 주요 요인이다. 타야기는 “이는 일시적인 조정이 아니라 가격 체계 전

Even though many communities are in open revolt against massive data centers needed to power artificial intelligence, a startup is betting that homeowners will welcome miniature data centers in their backyards. The startup, an intelligent power management company called SPAN , has partnered with Nvidia and homebuilder PulteGroup to make use of spare electrical transmission capacity already available in many neighborhoods—something SPAN says its smart panels can detect. Rather than building massive new data centers with their own ZIP code, SPAN is proposing a network of small units, called XFRA nodes, installed outside of homes or in small commercial locations. These nodes are no bigger than an HVAC or power generator found outside of any home, according to SPAN. A SPAN representative told CNBC that it can install 8,000 XFRA units about six times faster and at five times lower cost than the construction of a typical centralized 100-megawatt data center of the same size. “One big reason

- Why human capital data is pulling AI back inside the firewall
For the better part of two decades, the direction of travel in enterprise technology has been clear: everything moves to the cloud . The rationale was simple; the cloud was cheaper, scalable and easier to manage. But, as artificial intelligence (AI) enters the enterprise mainstream, that long-standing assumption is starting to bend. In certain areas, particularly where sensitive data is involved, companies are reconsidering how and where AI operates. Increasingly, they are exploring AI inside the firewall, running AI capabilities within their own on-premises controlled environments rather than relying entirely on cloud-based platforms. We are seeing this shift clearly through the lens of human capital management (HCM) data . Across our platforms, more than two million employees interact with workforce systems every day through time clocks, biometric verification and workforce management tools. That vantage point offers a clear view into how organisations think about employee data, and
