NAG

What NAG does

NAG is a privately held technology company founded in 1991 and headquartered in Los Angeles, United States, that delivers hybrid high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure solutions. Its core product integrates cloud and on-premise computing resources into a single orchestrated environment, enabling organizations to burst workloads into the cloud during peak demand while keeping sensitive data and steady-state workloads on-premise. NAG's stated differentiation is the combination of performance optimization, security containment, and cost-efficiency within one architecture, targeted at engineering- and science-intensive compute workloads.

NAG serves four primary verticals: aerospace, automotive, oil and gas, and nuclear energy — all industries characterized by computationally heavy simulation, modeling, and analysis workloads with strict security and reliability requirements. The company positions its hybrid HPC solution against the limitations of pure-cloud approaches (which may fail security or compliance requirements) and pure on-premise approaches (which cannot efficiently absorb peak demand). NAG also operates across Africa and EMEA in addition to its US base.

The business model is consistent with a professional services and infrastructure-integration consultancy: NAG designs, deploys, and supports hybrid HPC environments for enterprise clients. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and there is no information on revenue model mechanics, customer count, funding history, leadership team, or ownership structure in the available source data. The company operates with a small team of 11–50 employees.
