In less than 12 months as a member of the NVIDIA Partner Network, Salute has secured customers to support more than 20 GW of AI infrastructure capacity globally.
Salute, a member of the NVIDIA Partner Network (NPN), has secured customers to support more than 20 GW of AI infrastructure capacity globally, following rapid growth in its work supporting the deployment and operation of high-density NVIDIA accelerated computing infrastructure for some of the world’s leading AI providers.
Salute’s NPN membership builds on more than a year of experience supporting NVIDIA accelerated computing infrastructure and deploying its Direct-to-Chip (DTC) Liquid Cooling Operations Service. Salute brought to market the first comprehensive operational framework for DTC liquid cooling, combining field-tested operating procedures, specialized training and commissioning expertise to support the safe and reliable operation of high-density, liquid-cooled AI environments at scale.
Operating DTC liquid-cooled AI infrastructure introduces new requirements across coolant chemistry, leak detection, safety, system monitoring and maintenance. Salute’s DTC Liquid Cooling Operations Service addresses these requirements through field-tested procedures, specialized training and commissioning expertise designed for high-density AI environments.
