Vicor Corporation continues its Powering Innovation podcast series with HIRO, a leader in edge computing. The discussion addressed how edge computing (EC) systems bring cloud computing closer to where it’s needed for mission critical applications such as hospitals and smart cities. In the latest episode, Fred Buining CTO of HIRO sits down with David Krakauer, VP of Corporate Marketing at Vicor, to offer insights into this fast growing technology.
HIRO provides compact, scalable edge computing that is behind new smart city designs, education reform and medical advancements. A Dutch entrepreneurial technology company, HIRO develops high-performance Edge-MicroDataCenters (EMDC) that offer reliable hardware and software infrastructure and native services to support big data and AI processing on premise.
EMDCs integrate any type and quantity of CPU, GPU, FPGA and NVMe (non-volatile memory express) into containerized platforms the size of a shoebox that consume power at levels ranging from 1.5kW to 500kW. Fully solid-state and modular, these platforms are designed to require minimal maintenance and no special systems for cooling.
