AI compute on medical campuses, without building a data hall
Hospitals already operate the two conditions a DAIT node requires: substantial electrical service and rooftop plant area. The node adds compute capacity and on-site storage alongside existing plant, without competing for conditioned clinical floor space.
Continuity and data governance are already procurement conditions here
Medical campuses are named in the Mid Tier deployment profile alongside commercial rooftops and hotels. The characteristics that make a hospital difficult to serve from a distant data center are the same ones that suit an on-site sealed node.
Storage stays behind at the site
Each cabinet carries 47 kWh of on-site storage with a 10 kW solar inverter. The node is designed to keep operating through a local outage, and that stored capacity remains available at the host site.
Compute executes in-region
Workloads run inside the jurisdiction they serve rather than transiting to a distant region. The mesh uses zero-trust mTLS identity, AES-256-GCM encrypted links and hardware-enforced memory encryption via AMD SEV-SNP and NVIDIA H100 trusted execution.
Designed for existing rooftop plant
The Mid Tier configuration is intended to use existing rooftop HVAC space and power, with active thermal management rated to 4000W and battery backup. The IP65-sealed enclosure removes any requirement for conditioned indoor space.
No interconnection queue
Because the node attaches to an existing secondary grid drop, deployment does not enter substation interconnection, rezoning or multi-year municipal approval processes.
What governs feasibility on this site type
A hospital site assessment covers the same five qualification gates as any other host, with additional emphasis on separation from clinical and life-safety systems.
| Consideration | What is assessed |
|---|---|
| Structural loading | Roof or pad capacity for the cabinet and its mounting arrangement, assessed relative to existing plant loads and access routes. |
| Electrical separation | Available spare capacity behind the existing service, and confirmation that the node is supplied from non-essential distribution so essential and life-safety circuits are unaffected. |
| Thermal and acoustic | Placement relative to air intakes, windows and occupied clinical areas, accounting for the sealed enclosure’s active cooling. |
| Network segregation | A dedicated on-site connection or straightforward extension, provisioned separately from clinical networks and biomedical device VLANs. |
| Access and servicing | Crane or vehicle access for placement and for subsequent maintenance visits, scheduled around clinical operations. |
| Legal and data | Authority to grant multi-year licensing rights over the location, and documented data-residency requirements agreed before survey. |
What the site receives
DAIT carries all capital expenditure, installation, maintenance and insurance. The host contributes space and access to existing service.
- Zero capital outlayDAIT carries 100% of capital expenditure, installation, insurance and maintenance.
- Peak demand reductionOn-site storage is intended to shave peak demand, where commercial electricity bills concentrate — a targeted reduction of 20–30%.
- On-site backup47 kWh of storage per cabinet, provided without the host purchasing a battery system.
- Recurring incomeA fixed site license fee or a share of compute revenue, on space that currently generates none.
DAIT is at pre-pilot stage. The mesh is architected to meet SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA isolation and GDPR in-region data requirements; these are design targets for the platform, not certifications currently held, and no node has yet been deployed in the field. Power-saving and resilience figures are engineering estimates rather than measured operating results. Any deployment on a healthcare site would be subject to the operator’s own governance, procurement and clinical engineering review.
