Vertiv just dropped its first digital twin onto Nvidia’s Omniverse DSX platform, and it’s aimed squarely at one of the most expensive problems in tech right now: building AI factories without spending years and billions on guesswork.
The product, called the Vertiv OneCore Rubin DSX, is a simulation-ready model that converges power, cooling, controls, and lifecycle services into a single system-level digital twin. It lets engineers design, test, and optimize an entire AI data center’s physical infrastructure inside a virtual environment before anything gets bolted to a concrete floor.
What Vertiv actually built
The OneCore Rubin DSX is Vertiv’s contribution to Nvidia’s Vera Rubin DSX AI factory reference design and the broader Omniverse DSX Blueprint. It functions as a set of modular, repeatable building blocks that can be stress-tested in simulation rather than discovered to be wrong after construction.
Vertiv isn’t the only company contributing to the Nvidia DSX ecosystem. Partners in the broader effort include Cadence, Dassault Systèmes, and Siemens, each bringing their own simulation and design capabilities to the platform.
