Vertiv and Nvidia have teamed up to build converged physical infrastructure for the next generation of AI factories, combining Vertiv’s prefabricated power and cooling systems with Nvidia’s digital twin simulation platform. The result is a system designed to let data center operators model, test, and optimize massive AI deployments before breaking ground.

The collaboration centers on Nvidia’s Vera Rubin DSX AI factory reference design and the Nvidia Omniverse DSX Blueprint. Vertiv is contributing DSX SimReady digital models of its advanced power and cooling hardware, enabling real-time simulation of AI factory layouts inside Nvidia’s Omniverse environment.

What Vertiv is actually building

At the heart of this announcement is the Vertiv SmartRun system, a prefabricated overhead solution that bundles power distribution and liquid cooling into a single modular package. Instead of threading separate power and cooling infrastructure through a facility piece by piece, SmartRun delivers it all in one integrated unit.
