Bluntly speaking, we know what we are doing. We design solutions tailored to our customer’s needs. There are large household name high-performance computing manufacturers that have deep expertise. We have the expertise and are usually much more affordable and flexible for our customers. There are smaller companies that mindlessly try to sell sell hardware whose expertise in high-performance computing doesn’t go beyond spelling HPC in their company name. We feel Aeon Computing is a perfect balance of technical expertise, flexibility and affordability in high-performance computing and our customers agree.

Aeon Computing does business worldwide. We have deployments all over the United States as well as international countries including (but not limited to) Canada, Mexico, The United Kingdom, Sweden, Germany, France, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Hungary, Japan, Republic of Korea, Hong Kong SAR, Australia, Singapore, Chile and Brazil.

Aeon Computing sells direct to customers as well as selling through resellers and consultants. While most of our products and services are sold direct to customers we do work in partnership with resellers in a close and protected partnership on projects and opportunities.

As a high-performance computing manufacturer we understand that many of our customers engage in research, intellectual property and other applications that require strict confidentiality. Aeon Computing takes these matters very seriously. As a privately-held company we do not have to disclose our business relationships, customer applications or technical details of our deployments. Additionally Aeon Computing enters into confidentiality agreements with our customers if necessary.
