From Planning
to Production
End-to-end GPU infrastructure deployment. We design, procure, deploy, and configure your AI infrastructure—so you can focus on what you're building, not how to build it.
Deploying GPU infrastructure isn't like spinning up cloud instances. It's networking, cooling, power, rack layout, driver compatibility, cluster configuration, and a hundred other details that can derail a project before it starts.
Most organizations don't have GPU infrastructure expertise in-house—and they shouldn't need to. That's where SLYD Deployment Services comes in.
We work alongside your team from initial planning through production deployment. Our engineers have deployed thousands of GPUs across data centers, colocation facilities, and on-premises environments. We bring that experience to your project.
You tell us what you want to run. We make the infrastructure happen.
What We Do
Full-spectrum deployment services from initial assessment through production handoff.
Infrastructure Assessment
Comprehensive analysis of your power, cooling, network, and space requirements. We identify constraints before they become problems.
Architecture Design
Hardware selection, network fabric design, storage architecture, and cluster topology. We design systems that match your workload requirements.
Hardware Procurement
Sourcing through our OEM partnerships with Dell, HPE, Supermicro, Lenovo, and Gigabyte. Volume pricing and priority allocation.
Physical Deployment
Rack and stack, cabling, burn-in testing, and firmware updates. Our engineers handle the physical installation at your facility.
SLYD Configuration
Operating system installation, network configuration, security hardening, monitoring setup, and SLYD platform integration.
Training & Handoff
Administrator training, documentation, runbooks, and 30-day hypercare period. Your team is prepared to operate the infrastructure.
Why Work With Us
OEM Partnerships Mean Better Outcomes
Direct relationships with Dell, HPE, Supermicro, Lenovo, and Gigabyte engineering teams. We get answers faster, pricing better, and allocation priority when supply is constrained.
GPU Infrastructure Is What We Do
Not a side project—it's our entire business. We've deployed everything from single workstations to multi-rack HPC clusters. That experience translates to faster deployments with fewer surprises.
One Vendor for Everything
Hardware + software + services = single point of accountability. No finger-pointing between vendors when something doesn't work. We own the outcome end-to-end.
We've Seen the Failure Modes
Thermal throttling from bad airflow design. Network bottlenecks from undersized switches. Driver conflicts from untested configurations. We design around the problems we've already solved.

How We Work
A structured approach from initial contact to production deployment.
Discovery
Week 0Initial call to understand your requirements, constraints, and timeline. We scope the engagement and provide a proposal.
Assessment
Weeks 1-2Site survey, power and cooling analysis, network evaluation. We identify what's needed and what constraints exist.
Design
Weeks 2-4Architecture documentation, hardware selection, network design. We deliver a detailed blueprint for review and approval.
Procurement
Weeks 4-8Hardware ordering, staging, pre-configuration. Lead times vary based on availability and configuration complexity.
Deployment
Weeks 8-10Physical installation, cabling, burn-in testing. Our engineers are on-site to handle the rack-and-stack.
Configuration
Weeks 10-11OS installation, network setup, security hardening, SLYD platform integration, monitoring configuration.
Validation
Weeks 11-12Workload testing, performance validation, training, documentation handoff. We confirm everything works before go-live.

Common Questions
Do you only deploy SLYD infrastructure?
No. While we specialize in SLYD-managed infrastructure, our deployment services work with any GPU hardware. If you have existing equipment or prefer a different management approach, we can still handle the physical deployment and configuration.
Can you work with our existing data center provider?
Yes. We deploy into customer-owned data centers, colocation facilities, and cloud provider bare-metal environments. We coordinate directly with your facility team or colo provider to handle access, power provisioning, and network connectivity.
What if we already have hardware?
We can work with existing hardware. Our services include assessment of current equipment, integration planning, and configuration of mixed environments. We'll be honest if your existing hardware creates limitations for your intended workloads.
Do you provide ongoing managed services?
Our deployment services include a 30-day hypercare period after go-live. For ongoing management, the SLYD platform provides automated monitoring, updates, and alerting. We also offer extended support contracts for organizations that want dedicated ongoing assistance.
What's your geographic coverage?
We deploy throughout North America and have partner relationships for European deployments. For other regions, contact us to discuss options—we've completed international projects on a case-by-case basis.
Can you help with financing?
Yes. SLYD offers equipment financing options that can be bundled with deployment services. This lets you spread hardware and deployment costs over time rather than requiring full upfront capital. See our financing page for details.
