KONNECT HPC

KONNECT - HPC Data Centers

As high performance computing (HPC) is set to become essential for every enterprise, Kontena introduces the KONNECT ecosystem: a scalable and modular approach to HPC. Our ecosystem offers a range of modular components to kickstart high performance computing operations, regardless of location.

INTRODUCING

KONNECT – HPC Ecosystem

To compete in the High Performance Computing and AI market, redundancy, scalability and flexibility are required. We offer a data center alternative that leverages top-tier components and intelligent modular engineering to reduce costs, speed up deployment, and enhance scalability.

EDGE - HPC Data Room

At the heart of our KONNECT ecosystem stands the EDGE, a containerised data center that can be tailored to your needs, quickly and easily deployed to any chosen location. Serving as the central hub, it links up to power, cooling and network resources. With high density racks, up to 12 server racks or 564U providing space for up to 720kW of power. Discover more

ICE - Cooling Unit

The KONNECT ICE is a plug-and-play containerized cooling unit that seamlessly integrates with the EDGE HPC data room. It consists of an adiabatic dry cooler and pump skid. For hot climates, the cooling capacity can be upgraded with an integrated chiller. Discover more

HX

Heat Exchanger

The KONNECT HX is a fully customizable liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger (HX), housed within either an open or closed container frame. It’s engineered from the ground up to align with the specific requirements of your application. Integrated with the primary cooling system, it ensures consistent internal temperatures in the data room, while efficiently extracting excess heat for reuse within any given system. The HX reduces power consumption on the primary cooling unit, improving the system PUE.

POWER

UPS & Batteries

The UPS container ensures uninterrupted uptime and safeguards the equipment by maintaining proper power quality. Housed in a 20ft ISO container, for example, it can deliver up to 1500kW of power from the batteries. Different battery sizes are available for your project’s specific needs.

TRAFO

Mobile Transformers

A tailored containerized solution to connect to any medium voltage electrical grid. It includes switching gear for both the low voltage and high voltage side as well as of course the transformer (TX). Skilled technicians and engineers can take care of all required connections, commissioning and total activation, if so desired. When faced with an emergency, a back-up fleet is available to reduce any downtime.

Low CAPEX

Up to 4 times lower CAPEX compared to traditional data center solutions.

Quick to deploy

Essentially building blocks, all units within the ecosystem are compatible. Plug-and-play at its finest.

Scalable

Reduce your CAPEX. Scale your operations later on as your business grows.

Rack density

Rack densities up to 80kW. Even higher densities are available with liquid-to-chip cooling.

Easy to finance

Lease both the hardware and infrastructure. You can completely eliminate upfront costs, paying only when the installation is in use.

Flexible

Move to a better environment, change out or upgrade, or even sell when the need arises. It has never been this simple.

Think big

Scale smart with KONNECT

Designed to combine the advantages of our modular and flexible units with the scale of a large brick-and-mortar type data center. Enter and exit the data rooms without being exposed to the open air. Protect the equipment you need to move around from the elements. Provide more granular access control to your staff and customers. It can serve bigger projects at the start or those with substantial growth potential over time.

Concurrent maintainability

Enabling seamless maintenance activities without impacting operational continuity. This approach ensures that critical systems can be serviced independently, minimizing the risk of downtime and optimizing overall reliability.

Redundancy

Our data center architecture centers around redundancy, providing backup systems for uninterrupted operations. This strategy enhances system reliability, mitigates risks, and ensures continuity of critical services.

Fire & safety

Fire and safety is prioritized, implementing advanced systems for equipment and personnel protection. Rigorous safety protocols and cutting-edge technologies contribute to a secure environment, giving you peace of mind for your valuable assets.

Revenue Boost for a wide range of industry sectors

Our leasing formula with pre-financing

Lease the hardware and KONNECT infrastructure on a 3 year lease. Including a pre-financing option, you can completely eliminate upfront costs, paying only when the installation is in use.

Scalable growth

Build infrastructure only when the need for more compute hardware arises. Avoid investing in a large brick building upfront, allowing you to allocate funds to more compute power and minimize idle infrastructure from the outset.

Hardware optimizations

We maximize your investment by improving the performance of each and every component. Lower your energy costs by up to 30%, or boost hardware performance.

Energy savings

Even with efficient hardware, running costs of an HPC installation can be significant. Each dollar cent you can cut on your electricity tariff will provide an annual saving of up to $45000 on a Megawatt. We can help you source green energy where it is cheap.

Low PUE

With efficient cooling, you avoid overspending on electricity.. With a tailored KONNECT cooling unit, you can run your HPC operation with PUEs as low as 1.06 with ease. Boost this even further with heat reuse through an HX unit.
