NEXUS
ADVANTAGES
DEPLOYMENT
MODES
All-in-One Server
Web, Compute, and storage on a single server, ready to run Tidy3D and Flow360.
PBS / HPC Integration
Submit Flow360 solver jobs into your existing PBS-managed GPU cluster.
Apptainer Workers
Rootless container workers for HPC environments with strict runtime policies.
Multinode MPI
Distribute large Tidy3D simulations across multiple nodes with MPI.
Private Cloud
Run the full simulation platform inside your own VPC or on-prem environment, under your control.
NEXUS
FEATURES
Everything you need to run Tidy3D and Flow360 on your own infrastructure, with the developer experience of the Flexcompute cloud.
Full control over security, data, and administration
Nexus is licensed software that you install and operate inside your own environment, with no dependency on vendor-operated cloud services. Ideal for organizations with strict compliance, data residency, or airgapped requirements.
- Deployed in your data center, VPC, or airgapped environment
- Customer-managed identity, networking, and storage
- Meets strict compliance and data-residency requirements
- No outbound dependencies on Flexcompute-hosted services
Runs Tidy3D and Flow360 on your own hardware
Nexus hosts Flexcompute's flagship solvers on infrastructure you already own. Your engineers use the same Tidy3D and Flow360 Python clients they know, against a Nexus endpoint instead of the public cloud.
- Tidy3D for photonics and EM simulation (FDTD, Mode, Heat)
- Flow360 for high-fidelity CFD simulation
- PhotonForge and Tidy3D Python clients supported
- Web UI and Python API, same developer experience as the cloud
From a single server to full HPC clusters
A three-tier architecture (Web Tier, Compute Tier, S3-compatible object storage) lets you start small and scale out. Solver containers are stateless and dynamically provisioned, so compute can live on-prem, in your cloud VPC, or across a mix.
- All-in-One: Web, Compute, and storage on a single server
- PBS / HPC integration for Flow360 on bare-metal GPU nodes
- Apptainer workers for HPC-managed compute
- Multinode MPI for large Tidy3D simulations
Centralized data and team collaboration built in
S3-compatible object storage centralizes simulation inputs, results, and metadata. Users and teams share projects and data without ad-hoc file transfers, while admins keep a single source of truth.
- S3-compatible object storage for all simulation artifacts
- Shared workspaces across users and teams
- Centralized job and data management via Web UI
