Add modules as the site grows.
Know when to order the next one.
Modular data centers add capacity one module at a time. Aravolta monitoring grows the same way, from a single pilot module to hundreds of production units. The load it measures tells you when to order the next module.

Hover or tap the chart for any month. Change an input or add a module, and both dates move with it.
Plan the next module from measured data
Each module reports its own load, so the forecast starts from what the site draws today. Here is how the two dates are set.
- Usable
- Modules × rated kW × your planning threshold4 × 250 kW × 80% = 800 kW
- Growth
- The measured trend of the monthly peak, or a rate you set25 kW a month
- Runs out
- The first month the forecast peak reaches usable capacityJul 2027
- Order by
- The run-out month, minus the module lead timeJul 2027 minus 6 months = Jan 2027
- Live utilization for every module
- Growth trends and seasonality
- Power, cooling, and space capacity
- IT equipment density and efficiency
- ML-based demand forecasts
- Estimated date capacity runs out
- What-if scenarios
- When to order the next module
- Cost per kW and cost per rack
- ROI on each capacity addition
- TCO models for different growth plans
- Budget and capital forecasts
One module at a time
Start with one module. Add the rest without rebuilding the monitoring. You pay for what you use, and there is no per-point charge.
- Phase 1
Pilot on one module
The node finds the module's equipment on the network and starts reporting.
- Template savedPhase 2
Refine on the pilot before scaling
Tune the dashboards and alert thresholds, then save them as the template.
- Phase 3
Add modules once the pilot shows ROI
Each new node ships pre-configured and reports when its module powers on.
- Add modules as demand grows
- Mix module types (compute, storage, networking)
- Upgrade modules independently, without downtime
- Retire modules that sit idle
- One dashboard for every module
- Site-wide capacity totals and forecasts
- Workload balancing across modules
- Same policies and configuration on every module
Lease modules to tenants
Give a tenant its own module or a share of one. Each tenant's power is metered, space and cooling costs are split by tenant, and the totals export to your billing system.
| Tenant | Peak / contract | Of contract | IT kWh | Cooling kWh | Status |

Replace modules in stages, not all at once
Old and new generations run side by side while each module is swapped. Every module's age and end of life stay in view.
- Gen 1 in service
- Gen 2 in service
- Design life left
- Planned
- End of life within 12 months
- Gen 1 · 200 kW rated
- 3 in service · PUE 1.46
- Gen 2 · 250 kW rated
- 2 in service + 1 planned · PUE 1.27
- Replace older modules one at a time
- Service stays up during the swap
- Old and new generations run side by side
- A staged refresh plan
- Age and end-of-life status per module
- Which generation each module runs
- Performance compared across generations
- ROI on each replacement
