Monitoring for portable data centers.
Tracked in transit, live on arrival.
Some compute has to move: military operations, disaster relief, special events, temporary construction sites. One Aravolta node travels with each unit. It logs the trip, keeps monitoring with no link, and syncs every buffered reading when a link returns.
From the depot to the site and back
Monitoring is installed and tested before the unit ships. The node logs the trip, connects when the unit is plugged in on site, and resets to baseline for the next deployment.
- At the depot
Pre-configured
- Monitoring installed and tested before shipment
- Standard configurations for common deployments
- The Aravolta node finds every device on the unit
- Plug in and it connects
- On the road
In transit
- GPS position during transport
- Shock and vibration
- Temperature during shipping
- Chain-of-custody documentation
- On site
Little to set up
- No specialist needed on site
- Step-by-step deployment guides
- Remote support during setup
- Mobile app for configuration on site
- Unpacked to monitored in hours, not days
- Between deployments
Decommissioning and redeployment
- Automated shutdown and secure wipe
- Configuration reset to baseline
- Redeployment checklist
- Transport-ready check
- Post-deployment report
What the unit reports from a hard site
Environment, power, and physical security, read by the same node that logged the trip.
- Temperature monitoring from -40°C to +70°C
- High humidity and condensation detection
- Dust and particulate levels
- Altitude and pressure compensation
- Runs on generator-only power
- Unstable grid power monitoring
- Solar and other renewable inputs
- Battery backup and fuel levels
- Intrusion and tamper detection
- GPS tracking of the container
- Access logs and audit trail
- Impact and movement sensors
Works with a link, or without one
Full monitoring with no permanent infrastructure and no internet connection required.
- Cellular
- Readings and alerts go out over a cellular uplink when one is in range.
- Satellite
- A satellite uplink carries the same data where there is no cell coverage.
- No link
- Full function without an internet connection. Monitoring and alerts run locally, and data is buffered on the node and synced when a link returns.
- Air-gapped
- Air-gapped operation is supported. Aravolta deploys on premises, air-gapped, or in the cloud.
- Data
- All traffic encrypted end to end
- Local storage encrypted at rest
- Secure wipe at decommissioning
- Compliance with military and government standards
- Isolation
- Air-gapped operating mode
- VPN and secure tunnel support
- Multi-level security (MLS) support
- FIPS 140-2 validated encryption
- Connection
- Outbound only. The node accepts no inbound connections, so there are no open inbound ports and no firewall rule changes.
- Control
- Disabled by default.
Where portable units go
Military, emergency response, events, industry, and research. The same node and the same view go with every unit.

Emergency response and disaster recovery
- FEMA and emergency management operations
- Stand-in for damaged infrastructure
- Medical data systems for field hospitals
- Relief coordination centers
Special events and entertainment
- Film and television sets
- Music festivals and concerts
- Sporting events (Olympics, World Cup)
- Political conventions and conferences
Remote construction and mining
- Temporary site offices
- Mining camps and exploration sites
- Oil and gas field operations
- Infrastructure builds
Research expeditions
- Field research stations
- Arctic and Antarctic operations
- Marine research vessels
- Remote environmental monitoring
The whole fleet on one screen
Where each unit is, how it has been used, and what it needs before its next deployment.
- The whole fleet on one dashboard
- Which units are deployed, idle, or down
- Each unit tracked across deployments
- Maintenance and inspection scheduled across every unit
- Usage hours and lifecycle
- One standard configuration, updated fleet-wide
- Performance compared across deployments
- Certification and compliance status
- Financial tracking (rental, depreciation, TCO)

Military, disaster response, or an event site: you get the same view of a portable unit as of a fixed hall.
