OEM & System Integrator Solutions

The memory behind the products you make.

Centon DRAM and NAND Flash products are built into systems across industries. Whether the end user sees it or not, the requirement is always the same: reliable, qualified memory that performs.

Application

Automotive & Transportation

Modern vehicles are data platforms. Connected and autonomous systems require reliable embedded storage to support navigation, infotainment, over-the-air software updates, digital instrument clusters, and vehicle-to-vehicle communications. The data generated and consumed at the edge of the vehicle demands storage that is qualified for the environment.

Drive recorders, telematics systems, and autonomous control computers all depend on embedded NAND flash that can operate reliably across extended temperature ranges, resist shock and vibration, and maintain data integrity over long product lifecycles. Centon supports these requirements with industrial-grade embedded solutions and controlled BOM builds.

Transportation & Intelligent Transport Systems

Across commercial transportation infrastructure, the demand for ruggedized embedded flash storage has grown significantly. Railway control systems, commercial trucking fleets, maritime systems, avionics, commercial drones, and agricultural equipment all operate in environments that expose storage to continuous shock, vibration, and wide temperature swings. In these applications, storage failure is not a minor inconvenience.

Industrial-grade NAND flash qualifies for these environments through design characteristics that go beyond standard commercial ratings: extended temperature tolerance, robust ECC algorithms, power-loss protection circuitry, and health monitoring capabilities. Beyond the vehicles and vessels themselves, the infrastructure connecting them requires equally reliable edge storage to manage sensor data, logistics tracking, dynamic routing, and intelligent traffic systems at scale.

Servers & Data Center

Data centers have broadly migrated from traditional spinning storage to NAND flash solutions, driven by the performance, reliability, and operational advantages that solid-state storage delivers. Flash storage is now deployed across server-side configurations, all-flash arrays, and hyper-converged appliances, each optimized for different workload profiles.

Edge computing has added a new dimension to enterprise storage architecture. Edge nodes require compact, ruggedized storage that can process workloads locally, reduce latency, and operate reliably without the environmental controls of a centralized facility. Centon supplies enterprise and industrial-class flash storage for both centralized and edge deployments, qualified for the specific demands of each use case.

Video Surveillance

The volume and complexity of data generated by modern surveillance systems has grown substantially, driven by higher-resolution cameras, broader sensor networks, and the integration of AI and machine learning for real-time analytics. Processing this data at the edge, within the NVR itself, requires storage that can sustain continuous high-throughput workloads around the clock.

Surveillance storage must support simultaneous video recording and AI-driven analysis, maintain 24/7 availability, and perform consistently across multiple camera streams. Centon provides purpose-qualified flash storage solutions for these demanding, write-intensive environments, with the BOM control and lifecycle support that system integrators rely on for long-term deployments.

Industrial & Factory Automation

Industrial IoT environments place unique demands on embedded storage. Networked machines, robotics systems, and edge compute nodes must operate continuously, often in harsh physical environments with wide temperature swings, shock, vibration, and no opportunity for maintenance windows. Any storage failure can trigger line stoppages with significant operational consequences.

NAND flash is the storage technology of choice for these environments: no moving parts, robust to physical stress, low power consumption, and capable of the high-throughput, low-latency performance that AI and machine learning workloads require at the edge. Centon provides ruggedized embedded solutions qualified for industrial temperature ranges, with extended lifecycle support and controlled BOM builds for applications where re-qualification is costly.
