Improve performance, safety, and security at the edge with data center accuracy

Companies are increasingly investing in artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous operations, and hyper-converged infrastructure to elevate performance, improve safety, and lockdown data. But to gain the real-time accuracy and reliability of these game-changing advancements, the technology often has to “live” in remote, unpredictable, and unmanned edge environments where traditional computers fail.

Demanding industrial applications, like trucking, construction, agriculture, oil and gas, mining, and power substations, require Crystal Group’s rugged industrial solutions to integrate compute power, speed, accuracy, and security into systems proven to deliver seamless operation in the most punishing, ever-changing conditions.

Critical compute features for industrial applications include:

  • State-of-the-art physical and data security
  • Ultra-low latency
  • Powerful high-performance data collection, processing and storage
  • Built-in redundancy
  • Advanced thermal management
  • Compact and lightweight form factors
