Setting up AI factories in simulation — decreasing deployment time from months to days — is accelerating the next industrial revolution.

Nowhere was that more apparent than at GTC 2026, in San Jose, where NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang introduced NVIDIA DSX Air. Part of NVIDIA DSX Sim in the DSX platform, NVIDIA’s blueprint for AI factories, DSX Air is a software-as-a-service platform for logically simulating AI factories. It delivers high‑fidelity digital simulations of NVIDIA hardware infrastructure, including GPUs, SuperNICs, DPUs and switches, and it integrates with leading partner solutions for storage and routing, security, orchestration and more via open, API-based connectivity.

NVIDIA DSX Air enables a complete AI factory ecosystem, uniting NVIDIA infrastructure with partner technologies to deliver full‑stack simulation and accelerate complex AI deployments.

Companies building some of the world’s most advanced AI infrastructure, including CoreWeave, are already using DSX Air to simulate and validate their environments long before hardware reaches the loading dock. The development underscores a new reality: simulation is now essential to accelerating AI deployment at scale.
