Is "autonomous" really unattended?
Yes — under human command. The Autonomy Engine executes routine operations (load balancing, cooling, scaling, incident response) at a 99.9% autonomous target, always inside the policy and guardrails you set, with a human override on every action. Autonomy removes the toil, not the accountability.
How is a micro data center different from hyperscale?
A Cell is a 5–20 MW modular pod, not a gigawatt campus. It's prefabricated, sited beside existing power, and live in days instead of the multi-year permit-and-construct cycle a hyperscale region needs. Many small, decentralized sites beat a few giant ones for latency, residency and resilience.
Where does my data live?
On Canadian ground, in the region you choose. Residency rules pin your workloads to that jurisdiction across the Mesh, and your data never leaves it. Single-tenant and air-gapped options are available on the Sovereign tier.
What about security and compliance?
Zero-trust by default, SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 aligned, end-to-end encryption. The Sovereign tier adds private single-tenant capacity and optional air-gap for regulated enterprise and public-sector workloads.
What workloads fit best?
Latency-sensitive AI inference, burst GPU and training, and private enterprise compute — including generative-AI media pipelines that need sovereign, regional capacity close to the work.
How fast can we start?
It starts with a siting review. Once we've matched your workload to power and fibre, a Cell is racked on arrival and live in days. Request access and we'll come back with a capacity plan within two business days.
What does a Cell actually draw — and how is it cooled?
Each Cell is in the 5–20 MW class — the practical unit of the AI build-out, small enough to site near existing power. Cooling is free-air plus a closed liquid loop, with waste heat recaptured; on Canadian ground, a cold climate delivers free cooling for much of the year, and the grid runs about 85% non-emitting. New efficient builds target a PUE well under the flat 1.56 industry average.
Do you build the hardware, or operate it?
Both, as a system. The Cell is a prefabricated, factory-tested modular facility; the Autonomy Engine is the software control plane that runs it. You can take a single Cell, a Mesh of them, or the Engine over your own footprint — the layers are separable.
Is EliteMicro Services live today?
We're honest about stage: EliteMicro Services is in build, with capacity opening across Canada. The category numbers on this site are attributed to their sources; our own figures are stated as engineering targets, not delivered results. Request a siting review and we'll tell you exactly what's available, where, and when.
Can the Autonomy Engine run on infrastructure we already own?
That's the intent for the Engine layer — a control plane that can take the floor of your existing sites under your policy, with the same human-in-command guardrails. Bring it to a siting review and we'll scope the fit.
