Enhancements will include unified data fabrics, security upgrades, and automation tools designed to deliver massive speed improvements over 1,000x in validating designs using AI Physics models.

"With Rescale's full-stack NVIDIA software and infrastructure, industries can push the boundaries of AI-driven modeling and simulation--advancing discovery, design, and engineering at an unprecedented pace,” said NVIDIA founder and CEO, Jensen Huang.

With HPC now a $50 billion industry, and simulation software and product lifecycle data management valued at $20 billion and $30 billion respectively, Rescale helps companies in integrating compute, data, and AI capabilities.
