A Platform for Efficient, Resilient AI Factories With Lowest Token Cost
NVIDIA DSX defines how AI factories are designed, built, and optimized across the full stack—from the grid, facilities, and chips to infrastructure software and partner technologies—to produce more useful AI output from available power and infrastructure. DSX combines open software libraries, workflow guides, and reference designs with NVIDIA compute platforms and co-designed OEM infrastructure to enable a broad ecosystem of software and hardware solutions.
How Does NVIDIA DSX Improve AI Factory Performance and Tokens per Watt
NVIDIA DSX AI factories are designed as unified products—optimized for lowest token cost and energy efficiency.
Benefits include:
Accelerate bring-up with reference designs, pre-deployment bottleneck detection and prevention, simulation validation, and pre-tested software stacks.
Improve energy efficiency and performance per watt by aligning infrastructure, power, cooling, and system behavior through one architecture.
Operate AI factories with greater stability under real production conditions, including hardware faults, grid events, operational changes, and continuous large-scale workloads.
Deliver end-to-end integrated accelerated security to support AI factories with NVIDIA Confidential Computing and NVIDIA DOCA™ microservices.
DSX Platform Technologies for AI Factories
NVIDIA DSX Reference Design's generation-specific, validated AI factory architectures cover compute, networking, storage, facilities infrastructure, and hardware cluster design.
NVIDIA DSX Sim is a collection of simulation technologies and partner tools to help builders identify bottlenecks, validate cross-system tradeoffs, and compare expected and actual behavior after deployment.
NVIDIA DSX OS is the operating layer within the broader DSX portfolio. It provides open source, modular software for lifecycle management, runtime consistency, health automation, resiliency, multi-tenant AI factory operations, and platform software that helps partners increase revenue and improve margins.
NVIDIA DSX MaxLPS is the power and efficiency software designed to maximize token performance per megawatt within a fixed power budget. It dynamically manages power at the GPU, rack, and workload levels, maximizing token performance per megawatt within a fixed power budget and lowering token cost.
DSX Flex bridges AI factories and the power grid, receiving grid signals—including load shedding, demand response, and pricing events—and dynamically adapting workloads in response. It also orchestrates power across utility sources, on-site renewables, and storage, enabling flexible hybrid energy management.
NVIDIA DSX Exchange enables scalable, secure integration of compute, network, energy, power, and cooling plant signals across IT, OT, and operations systems. It provides the common communication layer for AI factory software, facilities infrastructure, digital twins, and operations agents to coordinate in real time, helping teams monitor conditions, enforce policies, and optimize performance across the full AI factory.
Accelerate AI Factory Readiness with WWT's AI Proving Ground and NVIDIA DSX
Together, NVIDIA and WWT help organizations move from AI factory ambition to scalable execution with greater confidence. NVIDIA DSX provides the open framework for designing efficient, resilient AI factories, from the chip to the grid. WWT brings the strategy, integration expertise and real-world implementation experience to help customers validate it in the AI Proving Ground and Advanced Technology Center.
WWT's architecture team, in collaboration with NVIDIA, is developing an NVIDIA DSX environment that shows how the DSX layers work together at practical scale:
- DSX Reference Design and Facilities Infrastructure: validated compute, networking and storage architectures designed with the physical facility (power, cooling and rack design) from day one rather than added afterward.
- DSX Sim: digital twin and infrastructure modeling to find bottlenecks and validate cross-system tradeoffs before deployment.
- DSX MaxLPS: power and efficiency software that maximizes token performance per megawatt within a fixed power budget, which depends on facility design decisions.
- DSX OS, Flex and Exchange: operational readiness, grid-aware power orchestration, and the IT/OT integration layer that connects facilities, infrastructure and operations.
