The NVIDIA Rubin NVL72 delivers five times Blackwell’s inference performance, but before a single token runs, your data center must supply 120 kilowatts of liquid-cooled power, 1.6 terabits of networking per GPU, and 480V three-phase distribution. This is the due-diligence dossier most CIOs need before they sign a purchase order: full architecture breakdown, rack-level TCO modeling, and a gate-by-gate deployment readiness checklist.
The most significant infrastructure shift in enterprise software isn’t a new AI model, it’s two open protocols most executives haven’t heard of.
