Commercial cloud was architected for commerce. We are building the first distributed and dedicated infrastructure engineered for scientific research at any scale—from individual contributor breakthroughs to petabyte-scale archives.
Modern research generates data demands that break the commercial web. High egress fees, lack of long-term preservation, and complexity are stifling discovery for everyone—from local S.T.E.A.M. groups to national laboratories.
The tools that run Netflix cannot run the Climate Model.
Commercial clouds charge you to move data. We provide massive pipes with predictable costs for research partners.
Standard storage degrades. Our "Geologic Storage" vaults are optimized for 50-year data integrity.
Simulating protein folding requires massive heat rejection. Our industrial cooling supports extreme HPC density.
A purpose-built data lifecycle engine designed to ingest, process, and preserve scientific assets.
Rapid data ingestion at the network edge. Accessible for community projects and major observatories alike to minimize latency.
Scalable GPU environments designed for simulation and training. Supporting workloads from single-rack community projects to massive burst compute.
Geologically stable, EMP-shielded subterranean storage. Optimized for multi-generational data preservation and "Cold Data" integrity.
A private, dedicated fiber backbone bypassing congested public internet exchanges. Distributed across the Northern United States, providing full-spectrum capabilities at every node.

* Network deployment follows a 30-Year Strategic Infrastructure Roadmap. "Discovery in Progress" indicates active site selection, grid analysis, and architectural planning are underway prior to final capital commitment. Operational timelines are subject to supply chain lead times and grid interconnection queues.
We founded IAAS.science to answer a critical need: the scientific community lacks dedicated, purpose-built infrastructure. While hyperscalers optimize for commercial transactions, we optimize for long-term preservation and high-density compute.
Our facilities are located exclusively across the seismically stable Northern United States, utilizing "Cut and Cover" subterranean construction techniques to provide kinetic hardening and thermal stability that traditional data centers cannot match.
We operate a strictly secure, compliant network. All critical infrastructure is owned, operated, and maintained by US Persons within authorized jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with ITAR, EAR, and FedRAMP High physical security standards.
We are assembling a team of mission-driven engineers, security specialists, and operators to safeguard the future of scientific data.
We are currently in the infrastructure deployment phase. Hiring for operations and engineering roles will commence in Q3 2026.
Submit Interest to HRWe partner with Research Institutions, Government Agencies, Schools, S.T.E.A.M. Organizations, and Individual Contributors. Whether you need a single rack for a community project or a dedicated hall for a supercomputer, your data belongs here.
