HIRO is Driving Innovation to the Edge, Teasing the Promise of Smart Cities
30 Janeiro 2024 - 11:00AM
Vicor Corporation continues its Powering Innovation podcast series
with HIRO, a leader in edge computing. The discussion addresses 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.
Buining explained the advantages of using EMDCs and elaborated
on the various projects and applications that HIRO is powering
today. “Our EMDCs are very efficient, saving almost 57% of the
energy consumption for a smart factory we power.” He goes on to
share insights on what is driving EC and where you can see it being
used today.
