Dell Technologies Helps Power NxtGen AI Factory

Dell Technologies reports that NxtGen AI Pvt Ltd, one of India’s sovereign cloud and AI infrastructure providers, has selected Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA solutions for building a large AI factory in India. This milestone deployment is intended to expand India’s national AI capability, enabling large-scale generative AI, agentic AI, physical AI and high-performance computing across enterprises, start-ups and government programs, the companies report.

Dell will provide the core infrastructure, including Vertiv liquid-cooled Dell PowerEdge XE9685L servers, delivered through Dell Integrated Rack Scalable Systems, for NxtGen’s new AI cluster, allowing the company to meet demand for AI as a Service and large-scale GPU capacity.

This accelerated computing infrastructure is helping expand NxtGen’s AI cloud services for a range of clients, from start-ups to academia and government.

The Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA combines AI infrastructure, software and services in an advanced, full-stack platform designed to meet demanding AI workloads and deliver scalable performance for training and inference. Leveraging the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, NxtGen will deploy Vertiv liquid-cooled, fully integrated Dell IR5000 racks featuring Dell PowerEdge XE9685L servers with the NVIDIA accelerated computing platform to build a cluster with over 4,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs and NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking, all purpose-built for AI. These will be complemented by Dell PowerEdge R670 servers and Dell PowerScale F710 storage.
