The 5-step pipeline.
How energy turns into a deployed, financed, offtake-matched cluster, and what SLYD does at every step.

Configure a deployment.
Energy in, compute out. Start from whichever number you actually know: power envelope, accelerator count, budget, or IT load. SLYD sizes a buildable package from its pricing engine.
Save this build. Start the conversation.
Sign in to save this configuration and get a structured proposal from ops, with exact pricing tied to real lots and a delivery timeline. Capacity is held only via deposit.

Building a neocloud? Don't reinvent the stack.
If this cluster will serve tenants, SLYD Cloud handles orchestration, billing, tenant isolation, GPU scheduling, and marketplace exposure, so you sell capacity rather than build software.
How the configurator works.
Do I need to sign up to use the configurator?
No. The configurator is public and every output is a banded estimate from SLYD's published pricing engine. Signing in unlocks exact-to-the-cent quotes tied to real lots, lets you save the build, and starts a structured proposal from ops with a delivery timeline.
What does energy-backwards sizing mean?
You start from whichever number you actually know: site power at the meter, accelerator count, build budget, or post-PUE IT load. SLYD sizes a buildable package from it. PUE and the IT-overhead ratio come from the published pricing config, so the power envelope allocation stays consistent with the rest of the estimate.
Why is pricing shown as a band instead of an exact number?
Public output is banded on purpose. Every figure comes from SLYD's published pricing engine, but exact-to-the-cent pricing is tied to a real lot and sits behind sign-in. Dollar line items covering compute, electrical, cooling, networking, and install are quoted lot by lot after you save the build.
Can I compare new and recovered hardware in the same build?
Yes. The sourcing step switches between new hardware and recovered hardware. The cooling choices of air, direct liquid, and immersion each carry their own PUE from the pricing config, so the build cost and power envelope update as you toggle.
What these numbers are, and what they are not
Every figure on this page is calculated from the inputs you set against SLYD's published pricing configuration. None of it is a measurement, none of it is a quote, and none of it is tied to a specific lot of hardware until you save the build and sign in.
How to read each output
- Accelerator count, nodes, racks, IT load, meter power. Calculated. Derived from your chosen input mode using the accelerator specification and the PUE and IT-overhead ratio in the pricing config.
- Build cost band and the cost breakdown. Calculated, then deliberately widened into a band. The band is not a confidence interval: it is a disclosure boundary, because exact pricing depends on a real lot.
- Estimated annual revenue and monthly figures. Estimated, and the most assumption-dependent numbers here. They rest on a utilization assumption from the pricing config and on rates that move with the market.
- PUE. A configuration value attached to the cooling method you selected, not a measurement of any facility. Your site will differ.
What the estimate does not include
- Site acquisition, utility interconnection, and the cost or lead time of getting power to the meter
- Construction, permitting, and any structural work the deployment requires
- Ongoing energy cost at your tariff, staffing, and operations
- Taxes, duties, and freight
- Residual value, financing fees, and any discount rate
Operating cost over time, and the comparison against renting capacity instead, are modelled in the TCO calculator. Facility power and cooling load are worked through in the power and cooling calculator.
Freshness
The numbers are computed on each interaction from the pricing configuration as it stands at that moment. If the pricing engine is unreachable, the page shows a notice and retains the last build it computed rather than filling in defaults. SLYD does not currently publish a version identifier or an effective date for the pricing configuration itself, so this page cannot state which revision produced a given result.
This is planning analysis. It is not a quote, not an offer of finance, and not accounting, tax, credit, or investment advice. Capacity is held only by deposit against a signed order.
