Collaboration for Innovation

The collaboration will focus on addressing complexities in data center design and operation caused by the rise of AI. It aims to construct energy-stable and scalable facilities that are both efficient and sustainable.

Schneider Electric said, “By combining our expertise in data center solutions with NVIDIA’s leadership in AI technologies, we’re helping organisations overcome data center infrastructure limitations and unlock the full potential of AI. Our collaboration with NVIDIA paves the way for a more efficient, sustainable, and transformative future, powered by AI.”

Tailored AI Data Center Designs

Schneider Electric noted that in the first phase of this collaboration, it will introduce data center reference designs tailored for NVIDIA accelerated computing clusters and built for data processing, engineering simulation, electronic design automation, computer-aided drug design, and generative AI.

The reference designs will emphasise high-power distribution, liquid-cooling systems, and controls for extreme-density clusters. Through the collaboration, Schneider Electric aims to provide data center owners and operators with the necessary tools to seamlessly integrate AI solutions into their infrastructure, enhancing deployment efficiency and ensuring reliable operation throughout the lifecycle.

Digital Twin Platform Integration

In addition to AI data center reference designs, Schneider Electric’s subsidiary, AVEVA, will integrate its digital twin platform with NVIDIA Omniverse. This integration will facilitate virtual simulation and collaboration, accelerating the design and deployment of complex systems while reducing time-to-market and costs.
