Ramon.Space and Foxconn: Powering AI Data Centres in Space

It may not be the first data centre player to look beyond Earth for its infrastructure, but Ramon.Space is emerging as a force in space computing.

The company has expanded its collaboration with Ingrasys, a subsidiary of Foxconn Technology Group, to develop data centre infrastructure for space, signalling a shift towards in-orbit compute and storage capabilities.

As data generated in orbit continues to grow, traditional Earth-based infrastructure is facing mounting constraints. Latency, bandwidth limitations, power availability and environmental factors are increasingly challenging the ability to process and transmit large volumes of satellite data efficiently.

In response, space-based data centres are emerging as an alternative, bringing compute, storage and connectivity directly into orbit to enable real-time processing at scale.

Ramon.Space is positioning itself at the forefront of this transition, building on its existing computing, storage and communications platforms to establish scalable infrastructure in space.

Its technologies are designed to address the unique challenges of operating beyond Earth, including radiation tolerance, thermal management, power efficiency and autonomous operation.

Building data centres beyond Earth

The expanded partnership with Ingrasys reflects a move from development to industrial scale. Ingrasys, known as one of the world’s largest manufacturers of server and storage platforms, has already played a key role in producing Ramon.Space’s hardware.

The next phase will focus on scaling these capabilities into a dedicated, production-ready product line for space-based data centres. By harnessing Ingrasys’ global manufacturing footprint, the collaboration aims to ensure consistency, quality and the ability to deploy infrastructure at scale as demand grows.

“Expanding our work with Ingrasys to build data centre capabilities in space marks a major milestone in turning space computing from innovation into infrastructure,” says Avi Shabtai, CEO of Ramon.Space.

“We are laying the foundation for in-orbit data centres that enable real-time processing, reduce reliance on downlink and support the next generation of software-defined satellites and distributed systems.”

Manufacturing at scale for orbit

Ingrasys’ role in the partnership centres on translating advanced computing designs into manufacturable, scalable products suitable for deployment in space environments.

Its experience in producing high-performance server and storage systems is expected to underpin the transition from prototype to operational infrastructure.

“Ingrasys is proud to extend our collaboration with Ramon.Space into the in-orbit data center domain,” says Benjamin Ting, CEO of Ingrasys.

“By combining world-class manufacturing with Ramon.Space’s innovative computing platform, we are helping unlock a new era of space infrastructure.”

Complementing terrestrial infrastructure

Rather than replacing traditional facilities, space-based data centres are designed to complement terrestrial data centres and cloud environments. Their primary advantage lies in processing data closer to its source, particularly for applications where transmitting raw data to Earth is inefficient or impractical.

This is expected to support a growing range of use cases, including Earth observation, communications and government-led missions. It also opens the door to future services that rely on distributed computing architectures spanning both Earth and orbit.

The initiative will begin with prototype development and testing, providing a foundation for future operational deployments. As the industry progresses, the partnership aims to establish a new layer of digital infrastructure that extends data centre capabilities beyond terrestrial boundaries.

By aligning advanced space-grade computing with large-scale manufacturing, Ramon.Space and Ingrasys are working to define how data centres can operate in orbit, supporting the next phase of data-intensive space applications.
