Business Planning

Aligning technology with your business strategy is key in the HPC sector. Our expertise spans comprehensive business planning, ensuring your project's alignment with strategic goals. From project inception, we offer insights and guidance, facilitating decisions that align with your long-term objectives.

Scalable infrastructure

The implementation and execution of HPC projects are resource-intensive. Using our KONNECT ecosystem to scale your operations will dramatically reduce the upfront cost of your project. This will allow you to spend more of your funds on compute hardware and less on infrastructure.

Hardware Purchase and Optimization

We understand that one size does not fit all, and our goal is to provide you with a selection of compute, storage and network hardware that unlocks the full potential of HPC. Having sold over 160.000 GPUs and 2000 EPYC CPUs already, we have developed very strong partnerships with the leading technology giants and can offer a unique combination of customer support and sharp pricing.

Sustainable Power Sources

When deploying high amounts of processing power, the need to think about optimizing running costs arises. HPC compute servers consume a considerable amount of electricity. When planning your project, sustainability is no longer just a nice to have. Through the years, we have built a network of site owners who have access to large amounts of cheap and green electricity, combined with fiber networks and site security.

EVPAI Orchestration Suite

Managing HPC resources effectively is no simple task. HPC environments are inherently complex and require smart procedures and tools to push the boundaries of what’s possible. ElioVP's EVPAI orchestration software ensures that the complexity of these systems doesn’t hinder their potential.

Financial Services

Financing the development of high-density data centers is a challenge we address head-on. Our financial services, including leasing options for both hardware and infrastructure, support your capital expenditure needs. This support extends to ensuring your project is financially feasible from the start, with scalable solutions to grow your operations.

Financial Flexibility

Focus on your profits

Over a decade of in-depth experience allows us to unlock the raw potential of your compute hardware, demonstrating excellence for handling resource-intensive workloads, data analysis and complex computational tasks.

Our hardware and infrastructure will be tailored to your specific aspirations and constraints, ensuring you get the best value for money. We maximize your investment by improving the performance and lowering the energy consumption of each and every component.

Choosing for a modular data center build means choosing for scalability and cost effectiveness. You can grow as you go. Financial incentives and support from our esteemed partners such as AMD and Supermicro will keep the TCO of your valuable investment as low as possible.

We offer financial services to help you fund the capital expenditures of building a high-density data center. Our lease formulas can include both server hardware and modular infrastructure.

Once you are operational, our sales and operations teams can assist you in generating revenue from your compute capacity, ensuring a strong and steady ROI.

Boost your profitability with:

Our leasing formula with pre-financing

Lease both the hardware and 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

Unlocking the true processing potential of your hardware? ElioVP’s custom tooling does exactly that. 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, but without big investments? Can do! Our tools tune your system and we only upgrade key components if needed. This way, your hardware stays sustainable and future-fit.

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 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.
