What On Demand Systems does

On Demand Systems Pte Ltd (ODS) is a Singapore-based provider of secure High Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) infrastructure solutions, incorporated in 2011 and operating across Singapore, Malaysia, and India. The company designs, deploys, and manages turnkey HPC and GPU clusters that converge simulation/MPI-based HPC, AI/ML frameworks (TensorFlow, Caffe, PyTorch), and analytics workloads (Apache Spark, Hadoop) onto a single cluster infrastructure, supported by three proprietary storage appliances: On Demand PFS (BeeGFS-based parallel file system), On Demand ObjectStor (MinIO-based all-flash S3-compatible object storage), and On Demand Archive (Ceph-based archival storage). Complementary offerings include GPU optimization services, an HPCaaS offering via AWS for hybrid cloud bursting, an AI Infrastructure turnkey stack for GenAI and LLM workloads, Gigabyte enterprise server resale, and security add-ons (Delinea Privileged Access Management and Green Rocket Security MFA).

ODS serves enterprise and research customers in financial services (GIC, Prudential), manufacturing (Dyson, Borouge), public sector and maritime (Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore), education and research (Singapore Institute of Technology, STEE), and commercial services (Rentokil). The go-to-market is direct enterprise sales supported by senior consultants and a business development manager, combined with technology-partner channels across AWS, HPE, Gigabyte, Delinea, MinIO, Run:ai, and Sardina Systems. Revenue is generated through a mix of hardware sales for cluster deployments, subscription/recurring revenue from Delinea PAM and OPEX storage contracts, and usage-based billing for HPCaaS cloud bursting, with all solutions custom-priced via quotation under multi-year enterprise contracts.
