Academic & High-Performance Computing
Science DMZ-compatible, dark-fiber connected, high-density rack power.
Where commodity colos break
- Legacy commodity colos cap at 5–7 kW per rack
- Public-cloud egress fees vaporize NSF/NIH grant budgets
- No direct peering with CENIC, Internet2, or ESnet
- Compliance posture insufficient for HIPAA-classified datasets
What we deliver instead
- High-density 42U cage power options in single-digit kVA tiers
- Cold-aisle containment, in-row cooling, GPU/FPGA-friendly thermals
- Dark fiber and 2/10 GbE cross-connects
- Science DMZ peering paths via CENIC
- SSAE16 SOC2 Type 2; HIPAA-aligned data classification support

Case study sketch
From 3 GB/s NSF dataset transfers to single-digit-ms intra-rack RDMA.
University researchers at SDSU and similar institutions colocate analysis clusters here to pull from CENIC's 800 Gbps backbone, then run agent-based simulations and bioinformatics pipelines without the egress fees that would consume their grant funding inside a hyperscaler.
