- New distribution partnership empowers System Integrators to deliver validated, high-density AI solutions more efficiently
Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure and a Solution Advisor in the NVIDIA Partner Network, today announced a distribution agreement with PNY Technologies, a leading provider of NVIDIA-based solutions in Europe, Middle East and Africa. Vertiv and PNY will work together to provide comprehensive power and cooling infrastructure solutions based on Vertiv’s validated reference designs for the latest AI platforms, supporting System Integrators and resellers in accelerating AI adoption across the EMEA region.
The rapid adoption of AI is driving unprecedented demand for compute power, which requires high-density critical digital infrastructure to support it. This partnership simplifies the complex process of deploying AI infrastructure by providing System Integrators with a validated and streamlined path. By teaming up, Vertiv and PNY make it easier for customers to acquire and deploy complete, validated solutions for their AI projects, reducing deployment risks and improving operational efficiency.
Under this agreement, channel partners can now source complete solutions from PNY that include Vertiv’s high-density power and cooling solutions designed to support the NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 platform, for which Vertiv has developed a comprehensive power and cooling blueprint, and the GB300 NVL72 platform, for which Vertiv has created an energy-efficient cooling and power reference architecture – available as SimReady Assets to use with the NVIDIA Omniverse Digital Twin for AI Factory Blueprint. This approach provides a clear blueprint for deploying the necessary infrastructure for today’s GPU-intensive workloads, designed to provide optimal performance and reliability from day one.
"The transformative growth of AI workloads demands an ecosystem approach to help customers scale efficiently while maintaining optimal performance," said Alex Brew, vice president of EMEA regional sales at Vertiv.
