As AI and High-Performance Compute (HPC) continue to disrupt the data center landscape, Vertiv,, a global provider of critical digital infrastructure and continuity solutions, has announced a new portfolio of high-density data center infrastructure solutions to support the higher power and cooling requirements of AI. Now available across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), Vertiv™ 360AI is designed to accelerate AI deployments of any scale, with designs ranging from rack solutions for test pilots and Edge AI to full data centers for AI model training.
AI and accelerated computing are driving unprecedented demand for power and cooling, with rack densities anticipated to reach up to 500kW per rack. As a result, power and cooling infrastructure design and deployment have become significantly more complex. Vertiv 360AI provides a comprehensive solution to power and cool AI, offering a complete portfolio of power, cooling, and service solutions that address the intricate challenges posed by the AI revolution. Vertiv 360AI solutions include validated designs and pre-engineered solutions, leveraging Vertiv’s deep expertise to eliminate lengthy design cycles.
“After the successful launch in North America, we’re thrilled to bring the new Vertiv 360AI portfolio to EMEA and boost our customers’ AI plans,” said Karsten Winther, president for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) at Vertiv. “Our solutions provide a streamlined approach for scalable AI infrastructure, addressing the evolving challenges posed by high-performance computing. Vertiv™ 360AI is designed to help accelerate retrofits of air-cooled edge and enterprise data centers, as well as the development of hyperscale greenfield projects.”
Vertiv™ 360AI also features prefabricated modular solutions, enabling customers to deploy AI without disturbing existing workloads and without consuming additional floor space. Initial Vertiv 360AI solutions can power and cool over 130kW per rack and include designs optimized for retrofits.
Vertiv 360AI will be presented during the EMEA tour of the Vertiv AI Solutions Innovation Roadshow, starting from July 2024.
