With their joint design, Vertiv and Nvidia are offering liquid cooling support for up to 132 kW per rack. The architecture aims to optimize deployment speed, performance, resiliency, cost, energy efficiency and scalability for current- and future-generation data centers.
The reference architecture is actually a hybrid liquid- and air-cooling infrastructure that simplifies and accelerates deployment of AI workloads in new and existing data centers and enables standardization across sites. Through the use of preconfigured modules and factory integration, Vertiv claims it can deliver AI critical infrastructure up to 50% faster than onsite builds.
“New data centers are built for accelerated computing and generative AI with architectures that are significantly more complex than those for general-purpose computing. With Vertiv’s world-class cooling and power technologies, Nvidia can realize our vision to reinvent computing and build a new industry of AI factories that produce digital intelligence to benefit every company and industry,” CEO Jensen Huang said in a statement.
