The age of artificial intelligence is transforming the very heart of data centers. Yet, as organizations race to innovate, they are confronted with formidable obstacles – convoluted hardware setups, fragmented tools, and manual processes slowing progress to a crawl. Achieving truly scalable, AI-optimized environments has long meant battling weeks or even months of painstaking configuration. But what if deploying a cutting-edge AI data center was dramatically simpler—taking just days, not weeks?

This is the future ASUS is creating – the software-defined platform, ASUS Infrastructure Deployment Center (AIDC) and ASUS Control Center). Reimagine the journey from blueprint to operational excellence.

A Perfect Storm of Complexity—Until Now

Imagine the challenge of integrating dozens of AI clusters, each with varying types, storage solutions, and network components. In conventional environments, every driver installation, operating system setup, and cable connection is manual – and every divergence risks errors and inefficiency. Fragmented monitoring tools often mean flying blind, with no unified view and little room for optimization. High operational costs threaten progress, and inconsistent configurations invite disruptive instability.

Traditional methods leave innovation hostage to complexity and delay. ASUS saw these pain points – and developed an answer.

AIDC + ACC: ASUS’s Seamless Software-Defined Platform

Enter ASUS Infrastructure Deployment Center (AIDC), a command-line tool that automates deployment and configuration from the ground up; and ASUS Control Center (ACC), which brings real-time, centralized management to the entire AI infrastructure.

Together, these tools offer a seamless data pipeline from initial planning to live monitoring. Administrators benefit from increased efficiency by automating tasks previously performed manually, including OS provisioning, system and network configuration, driver and firmware updates, service deployment, and centralized control panel management. Instead, they use intuitive visual tools to design rack and POD blueprints, and with a single click, AIDC swiftly orchestrates the full deployment: operating system, firmware, networking—delivered with perfect consistency. What once took weeks can now be accomplished in days, even in as little as thirty minutes.

Once deployed, the AIDC blueprint flows directly into ACC. Virtually overnight, IT teams realize instant visibility into hardware integrity, firmware status, power consumption, and environmental impact—even monitoring real-time carbon emissions across the data center.

Automation, Intelligence, and Control—Redefined

The ASUS approach isn’t just about speed; it transforms reliability and scalability. AIDC automates not only network and system configuration, but also the installation of critical HPC packages such as NVIDIA® CUDA toolkit. Service deployment – whether Docker, Singularity, K8s, or advanced platforms like WEKA or IBM ECE SDS cluster – becomes point-and-click, opening new worlds of flexibility.

ACC, meanwhile, empowers teams with enterprise-grade oversight. Track health and uptime across thousands of devices; enforce firmware policies fleet-wide; interact seamlessly with open Redfish APIs; and spotlight environmental insights for sustainable operations.

Measurable Impact—Speed, Savings, and Confidence

The results speak for themselves: Data center time-to-AI deployment shrinks from weeks to days. Organizations can achieve 7x faster training operations, slash total cost of ownership by up to 40%, and sustain 24/7 uptime while dramatically reducing human error.

Take GB200 NVL72 and GB300 NVL72 as examples. Leveraging this platform, ASUS successfully completed the large-scale custom installation of ASUS AI PODs, each equipped with NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 systems, in just 30 minutes – including OS deployment, system configuration with memory and storage, network integration, GPU/IB driver installation, and security settings for account management.

This end-to-end efficiency empowers clients to accelerate their time to market and achieve operational excellence. The journey from complexity to confidence unfolds almost automatically, freeing IT teams to drive new innovation.

ASUS Solution Delivers Compatibility and Real-World Success

The ASUS commitment to deliver seamless integration with existing workflows and infrastructure is proven across global AI research labs, cloud providers, and advanced manufacturing sites.

ASUS Vision—Simplify. Automate. Scale.

In today’s hyper-competitive AI landscape, the ability to deploy and manage data center infrastructure rapidly isn’t just beneficial – it’s critical. ASUS is rewriting the rulebook for what’s possible. Our software-defined platform eliminates barriers, enabling organizations to launch AI initiatives faster, operate more efficiently, and unlock new growth.The transition from weeks to days marks a decisive leap. For enterprises looking to accelerate AI, reduce costs, and simplify operations, the ASUS approach is nothing short of revolutionary.
