Systems Integrator For AI, Nor-Tech, Explains Benefits Of On-Prem HPC Over Cloud

(MENAFN- ForPressRelease) Minneapolis, MN, August 29, 2025 -- Nor-Tech, a leading systems integrator of high-performance computing (HPC) solutions, continues to demonstrate the inherent advantages of on-premise HPC compared to cloud-based alternatives. These advantages include:

- Relatively poor GPU training time of public cloud due to slower networks and separated server clusters.

- Limited public cloud GPU availability.

- Relative expense of public cloud with respect to reserved instance utilization or significantly higher on-demand pricing. Cloud is typically 40-50% more expensive than on prem.

- Security, time and cost of moving data to and from the public cloud.

- Mindful of the pay-as-you-go model, data scientists tend to experiment less while using cloud-based AI, reducing model accuracy.

- With cloud, LLM inference is expensive and needs centralized testing and planning to be cost effective.

- With on prem, organizations have the ability to train on their own proprietary data and develop a model they then own.

- On prem avoids a single cloud lock in and creates leverage to negotiate.

- Cloud software stacks are proprietary to each cloud. A third-party software stack on-prem, will work with most cloud vendor solutions--enabling true AI model portability.

Nor-Tech Executive Vice President Jeff Olson said,“For organizations that want all of the competitive advantages that AI has to offer, it makes more sense to go with an on-prem high-performance solution for many reasons. We have an excellent track record of delivering systems capable of fully optimizing the best AI-related hardware and software on the market today.”

As one of the most respected names in the HPC industry, Nor-Tech has built its reputation on delivering turnkey solutions that are fully tested, validated and ready to deploy. By combining deep expertise in AI infrastructure with proven integration processes, Nor-Tech enables organizations to accelerate discovery, reduce costs and maintain complete control over their most valuable data and intellectual property.
