- Support for Innovation: With Soluna's advanced infrastructure, SF Compute will have the resources to develop and deploy AI applications while maintaining optimal performance and energy efficiency.
"We are thrilled to welcome Soluna as one of the anchor suppliers for our real-time compute marketplace," said Ethan Anderson, COO of San Francisco Compute Company. "Their cutting-edge infrastructure and commitment to sustainable, high-performance computing make them an ideal partner as we build a platform that allows everyone from enterprises to individuals to access the compute resources they need."
