The EAR System Software
The industry-leading runtime that optimizes energy and performance across CPUs, GPUs, memory, cooling, and system components, automatically and in real time.
EAR continuously monitors your infrastructure, applies intelligent optimizations per workload, and delivers up to 20% energy savings and up to 30% throughput improvement.
Up to 50% Total Infrastructure Optimization for HPC & AI
EAR (Energy Aware Runtime) is a modular full-stack software platform designed to monitor, analyze, and optimize energy efficiency across HPC and AI environments. Whether you need basic visibility or advanced cluster-wide control, EAR fits how you operate.
With EAR installed, data centers get complete power control and maximize system throughput while minimizing power consumption.
- Why EAR
Why EAR?
High-performance data centers are under pressure to do more, more computing, more efficiently, and with tighter power constraints. But traditional tools do not give you the visibility, control, or automation needed to gain energy and stay competitive.
That is where EAR comes in.
EAR (Energy Aware Runtime), refined with 10 years of R&D, is a software suite built to meet the real demands of HPC and AI infrastructure. Whether you are a researcher, a system admin, or a data center operator, EAR provides the visibility and automation you need — with minimal to no manual effort and maximum impact.
How EAR Works
