Nomad’s ‘Onboard Data Centre’ is cloud computing at the edge, bringing computer data storage and processing on-board where it is needed. This virtualised on-board connectivity computing platform helps train builders create trains for the future.
Our Onboard Data Centre ensures data storage and processing happens on-board, precisely where it’s needed. This solution can support both Nomad Digital and 3rd party applications, providing one common place with open Application Programmable Interfaces (APIs) for secure data sharing between applications.
With technology evolving all around us, our ‘Onboard Data Centre’ gives the freedom and flexibility to integrate selected train systems, making it maintainable and future-proofed. This solves the challenge of physically commissioning new hardware on a train, meaning operators can adapt to developing market and customer needs, building the foundation for intelligent services, today and in the future. Combined with other onboard connectivity solutions such as fleet connectivity, trackside networks, and passenger WiFi and internet access, we can develop a fully integrated connectivity suite.
