Field notes
The homepage provides a worked 168-hour delivery simulation, a sample call-auction book, and a timeline from notice through acceptance. It specifies bare-metal Ubuntu, 8×H100 SXM 80GB, at least 1 TB ECC RAM, 20 TB NVMe, and a 200 Gbps front-end network; sellers may substitute 8×H200 at par. These are page-stated contract terms, not independent evidence of available inventory or completed settlements.
