Hydra Host Powers the Future of Decentralized Compute
Hydra Host provides miners the diverse GPUs needed to dominate their subnets alongside best-in-class support and quality assurance.
Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DPINs) use cryptocurrency mining mechanics to connect compute buyers with networks of compute contributors.
Compute buyers like generative AI services, GPU marketplaces, and even medical research companies create subnets where compute providers or “miners” do computational work or provide infrastructure in exchange for tokens and incentives.
These subnets typically charge per seat registration and non-linearly rank and reward based on factors like compute contributed, calculations completed, and other measures of performance.
DPIN whales source their compute through Hydra Host.
Bare metal compute is the natural solution for DPIN. Using Hydra Host to source cheap, readily available compute from independent data centers around the world allows DPIN whales to quickly scale up and down their resources, craft contracts on their terms, and preserve margin that would be lost to the unnecessary layers of abstraction typical of large cloud providers and virtualization layers.
When a miner needed a jaw-dropping quantity of 4090 Threadrippers in a European colo, they came to Hydra Host. They sent an 11PM text and had a utilization-ready quote five minutes later.
In DPIN, access is nothing without reliability. The economics of subnets penalize poor performance and downtime while exponentially rewarding performance and scale. This means that DPIN miners cannot risk downtime and need rapid, white glove service at a moment’s notice. This is why Hydra Host provides miners a round-the-clock team of engineers and puts its dollars behind its compute.
When a miner was de-registered due to a data center’s internal server error, Hydra Host deployed its team to handle re-registration and credited all re-registration costs.
Hydra Host has the GPUs you need, where you need them, and for however long you need them. Just let us know how many.
