In the case of Flex, it will use digital twins to unify inventory, labor, and freight operations, streamlining logistics across Flex’s worldwide network. Flex’s new 400,000 sq. ft. facility in Dallas is purpose-built for data center infrastructure, aiming to significantly shorten lead times for U.S. customers.
The Flex/Nvidia partnership aims to address the country’s labor shortages and drive innovation in manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and technology. The companies believe the partnership sets the stage for a new era of giga-scale AI factories.
Nvidia and Oracle to Build DOE’s Largest AI Supercomputer
Oracle continues its aggressive push into supercomputing with a deal to build the largest AI supercomputer for scientific discovery — Using Nvidia GPUs, obviously — at a Department of Energy facility.
The system, dubbed Solstice, will feature an incredible 100,000 Nvidia Blackwell GPUs. A second system, dubbed Equinox, will include 10,000 Blackwell GPUs and is expected to be available in the first half of 2026. Both systems will be interconnected by Nvidia networking and deliver a combined 2,200 exaflops of AI performance.
The Solstice and Equinox supercomputers will be located at Argonne National Laboratory, the home to the Aurora supercomputer, built using all Intel parts. They will enable scientists and researchers to develop and train new frontier models and AI reasoning models for open science using the Nvidia Megatron-Core library and scale them using the Nvidia TensorRT inference software stack.
