High-volume, repetitive data jobs that don’t require ‘real time’ processing. Areas such as computational finance and risk analysis, higher education research and supercomputing, medical research and data processing, and climate modelling.

It uses open-source VM / container orchestration, and identifies which units are available for work, their utilisation, and network connectivity.

Each heata unit saves approximately 1 tonne of carbon dioxide per year, vs a typical data centre + household water heating.

By factoring in the energy that we save on water heating, we think we can get close to a PUE of 0.3. A typical data centre has a PUE of about 1.6. (PUE = Power Usage Effectiveness.)

The heata unit transfers around 80% of the energy consumed to the tank; volume production will allow an even more efficient design, with future units anticipated to transfer 90%+ to the water.

No, the heata unit uses its own connection, which will either be its own dedicated fibre line, or connection via 4G / 5G.

Very secure, we’re working with SUSE, leveraging their secure edge platform, providing enterprise grade security in physically exposed public infrastructure, eg mobile base stations.

Storage is inaccessible if removed from appliance; LUKS / AES-256 Fully Encrypted Drive, key secured with industry standard TPM 2.0 (ISO/IEC 11889) on motherboard.

Compute customer’s jobs are unaware of, and cannot be accessed by other customer’s jobs through VM isolation. Client's can request single tenancy if preferred.

Compute job’s access to the network will be removed once a job is finished or in event of suspicious behavior; remote access via unique revocable AES-256 private keys.

Compute loads are on a Private Subnet, isolated from the home network; all network traffic goes out through VPN out to the wider internet. Compute jobs are unable to access the host’s wifi and we use per unit AES-256 encrypted VPNs to the control server.

The unit can’t be altered by an attacker; the BIOS is locked and boots to the supplied storage only, there are chassis intruder alarms and all peripherals are disabled and physically inaccessible.
