Nvidia used to be a humble supplier of graphics processors, providing reference designs for its partners' graphics cards. As the company grew, it moved from data center-grade GPUs for AI and HPC to reference designs for servers, then to rack-scale solutions. At its GTC 2025 summit, the company announced Omniverse DSX Blueprint: a reference design for gigawatt-class AI data centers, or what Nvidia calls AI factories.
The Omniverse DSX is Nvidia's blueprint for gigawatt-scale data centers, purpose-built for training and running large AI models, which was designed and simulated using the company's Omniverse framework. The blueprint combines digital-twin simulation in Omniverse with real-world engineering data to create a unified environment where partners can plan, build, and optimize every aspect of an AI data center —from power and cooling systems to compute and networking layouts.
