# 🌟 ARM64 Agent Farms Overview #agent-farms #cost-savings #infrastructure #raspberry-pi ## What is an ARM64 Agent Farm? An ARM64 Agent Farm is a distributed network of Raspberry Pi computers running Claude Code automation agents. Each Pi acts as an independent browser automation node, capable of: - Web scraping at scale - Automated testing across multiple browsers - Continuous monitoring of websites - Parallel content generation verification - Distributed AI task execution ## 🔑 Key Advantages ### 1. **Massive Cost Reduction** - **Hardware**: $130 per node (one-time) - **Cloud equivalent**: $360/year per node - **Break-even**: 4.3 months ### 2. **Power Efficiency** | Metric | Pi Farm (10 nodes) | Cloud Equivalent | |--------|-------------------|------------------| | Power Draw | 150W | ~1500W | | Annual kWh | 1,314 | 13,140 | | Carbon Footprint | 90% lower | Baseline | ### 3. **Complete Control** - No API rate limits - No surprise bills - No service shutdowns - Custom modifications possible ### 4. **Linear Scalability** ``` 1 Pi = 1 agent = $130 10 Pis = 10 agents = $1,300 100 Pis = 100 agents = $13,000 ``` ## 🏗️ Basic Architecture ```mermaid graph TB A[Load Balancer] --> B[Pi Agent 01] A --> C[Pi Agent 02] A --> D[Pi Agent 03] A --> E[Pi Agent N...] B --> F[Chromium Browser] C --> G[Chromium Browser] D --> H[Chromium Browser] E --> I[Chromium Browser] F --> J[Web Targets] G --> J H --> J I --> J ``` ## 📊 Typical Farm Configurations ### Starter Farm (3 nodes) - **Cost**: $390 - **Use case**: Small agency, personal projects - **Capacity**: 300 concurrent browser sessions - **Power**: 45W (less than a light bulb) ### Business Farm (10 nodes) - **Cost**: $1,300 - **Use case**: Growing SaaS, SEO agency - **Capacity**: 1,000 concurrent sessions - **Power**: 150W (less than a gaming PC) ### Enterprise Farm (50 nodes) - **Cost**: $6,500 - **Use case**: Large-scale monitoring - **Capacity**: 5,000 concurrent sessions - **Power**: 750W (less than a space heater) ## 🎯 When to Use Agent Farms ### ✅ Perfect For: - Continuous website monitoring - Large-scale web scraping - Distributed testing infrastructure - SEO rank tracking - Price monitoring - Content verification - Screenshot services ### ❌ Not Ideal For: - Single-use scripts (use one Pi) - CPU-intensive computing (use cloud) - Large file storage (use NAS) ## 🚀 Getting Started 1. **Read**: [[Cost-Analysis]] to understand ROI 2. **Follow**: [[Implementation-Guide]] for setup 3. **Explore**: [[Use-Cases]] for inspiration 4. **Build**: [[Code-Examples]] for quick start --- **Next**: [[Cost-Analysis]] - See detailed financial comparisons **Related**: [[Architecture]] | [[Use-Cases]]
