Aerospace: data under control
Simulations, design data and supply chain collaboration in an industry where export controls and confidentiality are no mere footnotes. From aerodynamic simulations and structural load tests to AI-assisted maintenance: modern applications need enormous computing power.
- Aerodynamics without a wind tunnel – GPU-based simulations instead of costly tests.
- Load tests & AI maintenance – structural analyses and predictive maintenance in the cloud.
- GDPR- and ISO-certified – design data in our own German data centres.
- Computing power on demand – without investing in your own hardware, maintenance or upgrades.
Calculating and protecting at the same time
Aerospace engineering requires both: massive computing power and complete control over where data is stored.
Simulation using GPU power
Fluid, structural and system simulations run on dedicated GPUs and powerful CPUs – scaled on a project-by-project basis.
Controlled data room
Design and project data remain in German data centres – which is relevant in terms of export control and confidentiality requirements.
Supply chains connected
Partners access defined project spaces via VPN and with finely granular permissions – and nothing more.
Proven safety
ISO 27001 on the basis of IT-Grundschutz, the C5 attestation and documented TOMs support your audit trail vis-à-vis OEMs and regulatory authorities.
Cloud GPUs: the solution for aerospace projects
So that you can develop innovative technologies, run complex computations and set new standards efficiently – three fields where cloud GPUs make the difference.
Aerodynamics simulations
GPU-based calculations for high-precision simulations of aerodynamic properties – entirely without costly wind tunnel tests. In depth on CFD simulation in the cloud.
Optimal load distribution for cargo flights
Modern AI algorithms calculate the most efficient load distribution for aircraft in real time – less fuel, more safety.
Predictive maintenance for maximum safety
Deep learning technologies enable precise analysis of the processes inside engines – maintenance before a failure occurs: predictive maintenance.
The digital thread of your programme
CAD workstations in the cloud, simulation clusters for load cases and an S3 archive that retains version histories spanning decades of the programme’s lifetime – all connected within isolated project VPCs with documented access rights.
- Simulation – GPU/CPU clusters by load scenario
- CAD in the cloud – centralised working environments
- Long-term archive – Version statuses over programme execution times
- Partner access – controlled via VPN and permissions
