Introducing
GNARBOX for
Edge Computing
Own your tactical edge.
For IT and OT Professionals who are dissatisfied with building greenfield custom data processing and backhaul solutions for their edge computing workflow, the GNARBOX Edge Compute Platform is a rugged edge appliance and server software platform that seamlessly integrates with sensors, unmanned equipment, and other industrial machines in rugged and dynamic environments.
How We’re Different
The Platform
Unlike other edge appliances, the GNARBOX Edge Compute Platform is completely mobile, can be run in online or offline environments, and supports any cloud storage/compute platform. Its software stack enables customers to easily run containerized or virtualized applications with zero-touch provisioning, making porting simple and direct.
With 3-5 hours of backup battery power, rugged mounting solutions for a multitude of dynamic applications and water/dust ingress-proof ethernet and power cables, the GNARBOX Edge Compute Platform is a complete solution for any field application that requires uninterruptible data backup and backhaul.
The Company
GNARBOX is a technology company based in Los Angeles, with 7 years of experience as the market leader in the professional photography, videography, and drone industry for backup and onsite data processing. The company is backed by the largest installed base of users in these industries, and is the only player in the edge market with experience delivering rugged mobile appliances for computing large data sets.
With the confluence of our hardware design prowess, rapid engineering supply chain, and Agile DevOps software teams, GNARBOX is redefining what an OEM should be for the modern era. We are a hardware supplier that understands our customer’s needs and challenges with a dynamic ability to tune hardware and software delivery to meet the mission through each of the stages of your digital edge transformation.
Offerings
GNARBOX for Kubernetes
GNARBOX for Kubernetes is designed for enterprise and industrial organizations leveraging Kubernetes in their edge deployments, as well as organizations seeking to employ the most cutting edge technologies in net new edge deployments, while reducing their attack surface with a container-specific OS.
