The solution to outsource your calculations to physical or virtual machines

Overview of CadnaA CALC

CadnaA CALC enables outsourcing calculations to a separate hardware or virtual machine, making it ideal for resource-intensive tasks like large infrastructure projects or multi-variant calculations. While calculations are running, your primary license remains available to prepare upcoming projects. CadnaA CALC includes the following features:

  • Create your model with any CadnaA Product license and outsource the calculation running a CadnaA CALC license.

  • All calculation standards of all noise types (industry, road, railway and aircraft) are included.

  • Features of options L, BPL, SET and RAD can be calculated if available on the main license.

  • Evade the expenses associated with additional hardware when using virtual machines like Amazon AWS or Microsoft Azure. With VMs and CadnaA CALC CL, CPU power is scalable with just a click.

  • Convenient batch processing of files to be calculated. Simply copy/paste files to a shared directory and CadnaA will automatically batch process all files.
