The new collaboration with Nvidia focuses on optimizing data center infrastructure and supporting edge AI and digital twin technologies.

Schneider Electric and Nvidia have announced a collaboration aimed at optimizing data center infrastructure and advancing the development of edge AI and digital twin technologies.

The companies are combining their knowledge and technologies to present the first publicly available reference designs for AI data centers. These drafts aim to redefine the standards for deploying and operating AI in data center ecosystems.

They focus on Nvidia’s accelerated computing clusters and are optimized for various applications, including data processing and computational drug development. The reference designs include high-performance distribution and liquid cooling solutions and are designed for reliable operation and easy commissioning.

Future plans and integration of digital twins

Aveva, a subsidiary of Schneider Electric, will connect its digital twin platform with Nvidia Omniverse, creating a unified environment for virtual simulation and collaboration. According to Schneider Electric, this integration accelerates the design and implementation process, reduces time to market and costs, and promotes more efficient and sustainable industrial operations.

The collaboration between Schneider Electric and Nvidia aims to explore new use cases and applications across industries with the aim of driving positive change and shaping future technologies.
