European partners adopt NVIDIA DSX AI factory platform, NVIDIA says
At GTC Berlin on October 21, NVIDIA said European AI clouds and infrastructure partners are adopting its DSX AI Factory Platform, a full-stack reference architecture that co-designs compute, networking, power and cooling as one system. NVIDIA says DSX reference designs using closed-loop liquid cooling and dry coolers can bring facility cooling water use close to zero, with potential savings of 54 million liters a day for a 2-gigawatt deployment, equivalent to the daily water use of 180,000 households. The company also says DSX MaxLPS software can use up to 30% less power for the same token output, with CoreWeave, Firmus, Google Cloud, IREN, Lambda, Nebius, Nscale and Sharon AI planning to use it, and it reported partner evaluations such as 49% higher inference throughput for Nscale within a 264-kilowatt budget, while giving no general availability dates for several DSX software tools still in developer preview.
NVIDIA is pitching DSX as the blueprint European operators can use to add AI capacity under power and water constraints, but the efficiency figures come from NVIDIA and partner evaluations rather than independent measurement.
News Summary:
- NVIDIA DSX reference designs use closed-loop liquid cooling and dry coolers to enable near-zero facility cooling water consumption, with potential savings of 54 million liters a day for a 2-gigawatt deployment — equivalent to the daily water use of 180,000 households.
- AI clouds in Europe are building and operating NVIDIA DSX-based AI factories, expanding access to accelerated computing for the continent’s enterprises, developers and governments.
- NVIDIA DSX MaxLPS software helps operators use up to 30% less power to generate the same number of tokens, with CoreWeave, Firmus, Google Cloud, IREN, Lambda, Nebius, Nscale and Sharon AI planning to use the technology, while DSX Flex software turns AI factories into flexible power loads to support grid reliability and enable faster grid connection.
- NVIDIA SimReady Central, a hub for simulation-ready digital models of physical equipment, launches on Hugging Face with validated power and cooling assets, helping operators build and simulate DSX AI factory digital twins faster.
- New NVIDIA DSX OS open source software automates infrastructure lifecycle and improves health automation as well as resiliency capabilities to help operators run AI factories at scale.
- An expanding ecosystem — including technology and industrial AI leaders AVEVA, Dassault Systèmes and Siemens, and energy and cooling providers ABB, Eaton, GE Vernova, Hitachi Energy, Schneider Electric, Siemens Energy, Trane Technologies and Vertiv — is connecting AI factory design, power, cooling and operations to support Europe’s accelerated computing buildout.
