NVIDIA has transitioned its 800-VDC power architecture from a forward-looking design concept into an active production roadmap. The initial MGX-compatible 800-VDC power rack is scheduled to enter production in the second half of 2026, delivering high-voltage direct current to AI compute racks while the broader data center facility continues operating on existing alternating current distribution.

RAVEL and Strata Expanse have named RT-One as the first commercial customer of the AMPHIX AI Infrastructure Platform, a deployment model designed to validate enterprise AI infrastructure before permanent production sites are completed. What AMPHIX Is AMPHIX combines site-ready land, resilient power, cybersecure edge networking, certified compute stacks, and orchestration software. Its production-grade Centers of

At FMS 2026, Silicon Motion introduced the MonTitan SSD Reference Design Kit (RDK), a platform built around the company’s next-generation PerformaShape technology. The design targets Agentic AI infrastructure, where enterprise SSDs can provide a persistent memory layer for KV cache offload and autonomous AI agents. Agentic AI workloads place different demands on storage than conventional

In late July, Liqid unveiled a scale-up AI platform built around AMD Instinct MI350P PCIe GPUs. The UltraStack 30 pairs Liqid’s composable GPU pooling technology with AMD accelerators to address enterprise and cloud AI inference deployments that need to scale beyond the accelerator count and memory capacity of conventional servers. UltraStack 30: Pooling 30 AMD

DapuStor used FMS 2026 to show what it calls an industry-first 512TB SSD: a new top capacity for the R6060 PCIe 5.0 QLC line that doubles the company’s previous 245TB design and puts a full petabyte of flash in just two drives. The drive was demonstrated on the show floor through a performance test video,

Volta has emerged from stealth with a vertically integrated AI infrastructure platform designed to combine capital formation, powered land, data center development, GPU compute, software, and operations under one organization. The company is targeting a financing gap in the AI infrastructure market. While the largest technology companies can fund large GPU deployments directly from their

IBM has announced a multi-year, $240 million agreement with Together AI to deploy a dedicated NVIDIA HGX B300-based AI inference cluster on IBM Cloud. Together AI plans to use the environment to deliver inference services for open-source models, expanding its AI Native Cloud platform for enterprise customers. The deployment is positioned as IBM Cloud’s first

Lumilens has emerged from stealth with a portfolio of optical interconnect products targeting two networking constraints in large AI clusters: scale-out connectivity between racks and scale-up connectivity among GPUs within a compute domain. The company said it has begun shipping its first scale-out product to production AI data centers for a hyperscale customer under a

Smart IOPS and H3 Platform have announced an AI compute storage platform targeting up to one billion random-read IOPS. The proposed system combines Smart IOPS’ Unobtanium T50 solid-state devices with an air-cooled H3 Platform appliance designed around NVIDIA accelerated computing and networking technologies. The platform targets data-intensive AI inference and analytics workloads that require GPUs
