The cloud HPC activity is growing very fast especially due to the increasing demand of computing power from companies. Both the European and global market are rising and creating huge business opportunities. In the meantime, almost all European countries and a large part of the world need heating solutions. In that regard, gas and electric heaters represent a significant market share especially in France. Considering these facts, the solution proposed by Qarnot can address European and global challenges. At the same time, after a slow start, home automation has reached an inflection point with smart home perspective very profitable. Service providers, including telcos, cable operators, and home security companies, as well as retailers and device OEMs alike are bringing to this market a range of new hardware, services, and offers.
To Qarnot computing, the expected outcome is therefore to build the next generation of Cloud computing, with:
- Price & sustainability by reducing costs related to infrastructure, maintenance and cooling and spreading heat directly in buildings for free;
- Performance & reliability by using high-end hardware and efficiently handling the workload (re)distribution with the Q.ware;
- Scalability through the Q.rad technology, extensible by design and easily deployable in any type of building;
- Flexibility & compatibility by providing up to several thousand CPUs for durations as small as one minute according to our clients‟ needs;
- Availability by dedicating an important part of our capacity to free and low-priority academic computations. This capacity can be instantly mobilized for clients‟ needs;
- Security by proposing state-of-the-art encryption and leveraging on the decentralized approach.
