2CRSi signed a contract to deploy Cloud Edge solutions in India

Strasbourg (France), 12 September 2023 - 2CRSi (ISIN: FR0013341781), designer and manufacturer of high-performance energy-efficient IT servers, announces its collaboration with a subsidiary of the Indian conglomerate Larsen & Toubro, for the deployment of 2CRSi Atlantis™ 1SR servers and VRuna™ "Edge Datacenters".

Following the signing of a technology and commercial agreement between 2CRSi and Larsen & Toubro, two sites in India will host a micro-computing centre, also known as an "Edge Datacenter". These sites will host Atlantis™ 1SR servers, equipped with the latest 4th generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors.

This French-origin computer infrastructure solution stands out for its ability to provide exceptional performance even in challenging environments, such as those characterized by high humidity, high temperatures, and significant dust presence. Furthermore, it reduces the ecological footprint by over 45%!

These first two sites are part of the development of "Edge Cloud," an approach aimed at deploying servers near data sources, reducing response times compared to traditional Cloud solutions. By bringing computing capabilities closer to these locations, Edge Computing enables users to enjoy faster and more reliable services while facilitating the use and distribution of shared resources across multiple sites.

The VRuna™ solution, which will be installed in India, has been specially designed to meet the most demanding operational standards. It is capable of withstanding significant water rises, such as those occurring during the monsoon season, and can be completely submerged by "greywater" while resisting pressures of over 120 bars. Moreover, it is also entirely dustproof and operates autonomously without the need for additional thermal dissipation systems.

The validation phase of these first two sites is expected to lead to a joint proposal from "L&T + 2CRSi" for an Indian telecom operator that aims to deploy 1200 Edge Datacenters. This deployment intends to accelerate the roll out of services that require server proximity to reduce network latency.
