EDGE
HPC where you need it, WHEN you need it
Our modular HPC solution is built to high quality standards and is fully customizable to meet your specific needs. It also offers extension possibilities such as external cooling units, outside security systems, extra trim and finish with customer branding, software solutions, transformers, and custom options to fit your unique requirements. The EDGE – HPC Data Room is a versatile, all-in-one solution that can help businesses of all sizes meet their HPC needs quickly and easily.
Straightforward Maintenance
In the EDGE – HPC Data Room, the focus is primarily on IT infrastructure. Our fully optimized configuration accommodates up to 564U of rack space, with an additional 25U dedicated to network patching. Easily accessible cable trays, network trays and piping, all designed for straightforward maintenance.
Peace of Mind
Power is supplied by two power cabinets (A+B) alongside an auxiliary cabinet, all pre-configured, pre-installed and ready for operation. Other products are effortlessly connected via feedthrough plates and flanges. Equipped with fire detection and Argonite-based extinguishing, smart locks and cameras, redundant power, cooling and network systems, you can manage your facility with complete peace of mind.
45ft insulated shipping container
Fully insulated container equipped with LED Lights, ESD floors and extra wide doorways.
Max power
Our setup features 12 racks, each with a capacity of up to 55kW, designed for high-efficiency computing needs.
All-in-One
Equipped with climate control, fire safety, redundant electrics, backup power, cctv, access control.
Tailor-Made for Your Unique Needs
We understand that high-performance computing (HPC) needs are not one-size-fits-all. That’s why we’ve developed a range of HPC solutions to address diverse requirements and scales of operation. With our varied EDGE-HPC modules, clients have the flexibility to choose from different sizes and capacities, ensuring they find the right fit for their specific applications.
Our EDGE-HPC modules are designed to be adaptable, scalable, and efficient.
Key Features
High Density Racks
Housed with racking to cool up to 60kW or even 80kW of power, leaving ample room for future hardware upgrades. No hassle, just a single unit to handle it all. Differing for each location, keeping the unit mobile might also have a positive effect on building permits and other legislation.
Shipped as a Single Unit
No hassle, just a single unit to handle it all. Differing for each location, keeping the unit mobile might also have a positive effect on building permits and other legislation.
Plug and Play Offering
A plug-and-play solution not only ensures easy installation but also enables a quick go-live process.
Scalable Deployment
Our modular approach allows cost savings in both capital and operational expenses, accelerating business growth. KONNECT is designed with scalability in mind, enabling integration with future deployments. Specifically for the EDGE-HPC, expanding rack space in a later stage is an option without the need for system interruption.
Gas Based Fire Extinguishing
Reducing the amount of oxygen in the dataroom, fires get suppressed quickly without the need of water or any other agents that might cause damage to valuable equipment. Gas based systems are fast acting and leaves no residue.
Premium Brands Inside
Featuring premium brands ensures that our containers meet the highest standards of performance and reliability, providing both us and our clients with peace of mind.
Lower CAPEX
Compared to any standard data center deployment, our data room has a drastically reduced CAPEX than conventional deployments.
