NVIDIA가 호주 인프라 제공업체 8곳과 협력하여 2027년까지 AI 컴퓨팅 용량을 2기가와트로 확대합니다.

NVIDIA announced today that it is collaborating with a growing ecosystem of Australian cloud partners and AI infrastructure providers to expand land, power and shell capacity designed to host multiple generations of NVIDIA DSX AI factories, supporting Australia's growing demand for AI compute with up to a 2-gigawatt buildout by 2027. The participating providers — Firmus, Sharon AI, IREN, ResetData, Megaport, CDC, NEXTDC and AirTrunk — will operate the AI factories while NVIDIA delivers the DSX platform, accelerated computing, networking, software and ecosystem support.

Raj Mirpuri, vice president of global AI clouds and infrastructure ecosystem at NVIDIA, said: "AI factories turn energy into intelligence — the essential resource of the AI economy. NVIDIA DSX is a full-stack platform compatible with the CUDA ecosystem and enhanced through software over the life of the infrastructure, making AI factories more productive, fungible and durable — and a new investable asset class. Through our partnerships with Australian cloud partners, this infrastructure can support multiple generations of NVIDIA compute and expand local access to accelerated computing and NVIDIA Nemotron open models, helping Australian innovators build AI at home."

The expanded capacity in Australia will enable local innovators to develop models, applications and agents while supporting additional power generation projects to meet regional and global demand for AI compute. Organizations including Heidi and Atlassian will be able to build regional AI models, applications and agents for industries nationwide.

NVIDIA DSX is a full-stack AI factory platform spanning facilities infrastructure, computing, networking, software and reference designs. Compatible with the NVIDIA CUDA ecosystem and enhanced through software over the life of infrastructure, DSX helps operators serve a broad range of workloads and customers, improve performance and utilization, and extend the useful life of their assets.

Firmus is expanding its Project Southgate initiative, developing NVIDIA-powered AI factories designed to support hyperscale and AI-native demand across Australia and Asia-Pacific. Oliver Curtis, cofounder and co-CEO of Firmus, said: "Project Southgate represents a tangible commitment to building Australia's AI future. Together with NVIDIA, we are developing AI factories that will give Australian businesses, researchers and innovators access to world-class computing capacity at home, while positioning Australia to meet growing AI demand across Asia-Pacific."

Sharon AI is deploying up to 68,000 NVIDIA GPUs connected with NVIDIA Quantum InfiniBand and NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking, using the NVIDIA DSX platform to support startups, enterprises and research organizations. James Manning, cofounder and CEO of Sharon AI, stated: "Australia has the energy, connectivity and ambition to lead in AI. That potential only becomes real capability when organizations can access world-class compute without compromising on security or sovereignty. By building on NVIDIA's DSX platform, Sharon AI is equipped to bring gigawatt-scale AI factories to Australian enterprises, researchers, government and AI natives. With the trust and reliability needed to build, train and deploy AI at scale, Australia can turn its natural advantages into a genuine national AI capability."

IREN is combining NVIDIA's DSX AI factory architecture with its expertise across power, land, data centers, GPU deployment and infrastructure operations. Daniel Roberts, cofounder and co-CEO of IREN, said: "Building AI infrastructure at scale requires integrating every layer: data centers, compute and software. Combining IREN's vertically integrated platform with the NVIDIA DSX AI factory reference architecture provides a repeatable blueprint to bring capacity online at scale. We are applying that blueprint across our development portfolio, bringing IREN's proven international delivery and operating experience to our 800-megawatt Bundey campus in South Australia."

Megaport is expanding access to NVIDIA accelerated computing through its subsidiary Latitude.sh to support the inference needs of leading AI enterprises. Michael Reid, CEO of Megaport, said: "Megaport is proud to support Australia's growing AI infrastructure ecosystem as an Australian-founded global infrastructure provider. By investing in NVIDIA AI factories and expanding access to high-performance AI infrastructure, we help Australian organisations build and deploy AI locally, and scale globally through Megaport's worldwide platform."

ResetData is building AI infrastructure in Australia, providing NVIDIA accelerated computing through its AI cloud platform for enterprises, government and research customers requiring high-performance compute and Australian data residency. Marcel Zalloua, joint CEO of ResetData, said: "At ResetData, we've proven that when Australian businesses and researchers like the team at ProCan at the Children's Medical Research Institute have access to high-performance compute, they can deliver industry-leading results. That is why we are proud to partner with NVIDIA and develop the sovereign, purpose-built infrastructure solutions that will accelerate Australian expertise and empower local businesses with the tools needed to compete and innovate on the global stage."

CDC has developed AI-ready data center infrastructure across Australia and New Zealand to support high-density AI and high-performance computing workloads. Its facilities feature advanced cooling technologies, including direct liquid-to-chip cooling, designed to support NVIDIA accelerated computing infrastructure at scale. Greg Boorer, founder and CEO of CDC, said: "CDC operates more than 550 megawatts of capacity across Australia and New Zealand, with a further 800 megawatts under construction and additional growth planned to support world-leading, high-density workloads for critical infrastructure. Our facilities use 100 percent renewable electricity and incorporate pioneering zero water advanced cooling technologies."
