Metromatics NextComputing Vigor ED portable workstation

NextComputing has added the Vigor ED Portable Workstation for maximum performance and storage in tough environments to its range.

Graphics- or processing-intensive applications like geospatial imagery analysis, UAV ground control or HD digital video processing require powerful computer hardware, which presents issues in mobile mobile deployments where size, weight, power and cooling (SWaP-C) are a concern and typical rackmount servers are too large, heavy and power-consuming.

The Vigor series overcomes these problems, being compact, rugged and designed to handle the same demanding tasks normally assigned to full-sized systems. This means larger rackmount hardware can be replaced with an all-in-one workstation that is easier to transport and set up.

The modular, scalable Vigor EDS can be outfitted with the latest Intel multicore processors, high-capacity/performance memory, full-size PCI Express 3.0 cards and up to (16) removable enterprise-class SSD, SAS or SATA drives.
