Cachengo Rugged Edge AI - Comark Rugged Edge Computing Devices, Custom Engineered & Manufactured

With analytics and AI at the edge, you can improve your in-field operations, gain deeper insights, and deliver quicker, more responsive capabilities. But you need these solutions to be rugged enough to handle all severe weather types and all manner of harsh conditions.

This is where Comark can help. Comark has the expertise to implement customized Cachengo edge AI solutions that work for your infrastructure.

With Cachengo technology, you don’t need a data center for AI and analytics. Cachengo eliminates the need to send data back to the data center or cloud for processing – you get the tools to process data at the source.

Ruggedized versions of Cachengo technologies from Comark allow you to gain the advantages of faster speed and lower latency, quicker decision making, and enhanced security while also withstanding the harshest environments and conditions.

A Powerful AI Platform

Cachengo’s modular storage and compute systems can be deployed anywhere, allowing you to deliver edge AI technology with the right combination of security, scale, economics, and performance. And Comark puts our rugged devices through stringent temperature/humidity, vibration, and EMI testing to ensure they operate reliably in the most challenging environments

Cachengo offers these benefits:

Enhance security with a peer-to-peer network (Hive Connect) that sits on top of Ethernet and is virtually impossible to hack or disintermediate.
Increase scale by adding processing power with storage so that capability and capacity expand together.
The simplified edge architecture can reduce CAPEX by 5x and OPEX by 4x compared with traditional Intel architectures.
Add CPUs, GPUs, and even TPUs to storage to optimize analytics performance at the edge.

Inside Cachengo Devices

Symbiote Independently Addressable Server

The Symbiote drive is an independently addressable server that forms the foundational building block of Cachengo’s hardware. It features an Arm processor with six cores to provide compute capability that meets the minimum power levels often required in many edge environments.

GPUs or TPUs are incorporated in the Symbiote to provide the parallel processing necessary for many analytics workloads, including Computer Vision. Because each Symbiote is an independent device, they allow highly parallel workloads to be spread across multiple nodes. Flash storage delivers high performance/low power data storage and Ethernet networking that enables highly secure peer-to-peer networking.

The Symbiote drives are packaged into server nodes as Bento or Pizza boxes.

Cachengo Portal Software

Cachengo Portal is a cloud-based management software tool that manages the nodes. It is designed as an intuitive, low-touch tool that enables easy provisioning of the Symbiotes and automates many functions to enable efficient management of large-scale deployments.

Management can be a challenge in many large deployments. Cachengo Portal solves that challenge by making it simple to add peer groups and install apps with a simple “point and click” interface.
