Switch – The AI, Cloud, and Enterprise Data Center Experts

Switch stands at the forefront as the premier data center designer, builder and operator, offering unparalleled solutions for its AI, cloud and enterprise clients. In the past 20 years, Switch has built some of the most dense air-cooled data center environments. With AI taking off in the last couple of years, Switch deployed many of the first NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPUs inside its facilities. Now, the company is taking its data center’s cooling capabilities even further using Cadence tools.

Switch's data centers are not just about density and power; they are also about sustainability. Designed to effectively utilize 1/10th of the space and be 10X denser inside, Switch’s data centers are powered by 100% sustainable energy, telling a compelling environmental story that instills confidence in its commitment to the planet.

Switch has been collaborating with Cadence and NVIDIA on a core design issue and validation—preparing data centers for AI workloads of the future. The team has been using the Cadence Reality Digital Twin Platform for premodeling, design, and validation. As Switch deploys its new style of data centers, it can use the tool’s outputs to give its customers more near real-time information about how the entire fleet behaves.

The Cadence Reality Digital Twin Platform provides the Switch team with software features and functionality they otherwise wouldn’t have time for. Jason Hoffman, chief product officer at Switch, stated, “Our relationship with Cadence is really that type of partnership where they’re providing us a set of software tools that we simply wouldn’t be able to have on our own.” Learn more about how Switch is providing unparalleled exascale data center solutions.
