Cadence Reality Digital Twin Platform
integrated with NVIDIA Omniverse and Orion molecular design
platform accelerated with NVIDIA BioNeMo will transform the future
of design
Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS) today announced an
expansion of its multi-year collaboration with NVIDIA across EDA,
system design and analysis, digital biology and AI with the
unveiling of two transformative solutions to reinvent design using
accelerated computing and generative AI.
First, the new Cadence® Reality™ Digital Twin Platform is the
industry’s pioneering comprehensive digital twin solution to
facilitate speed-of-light acceleration of the design, simulation
and optimization of data centers across multiple industries. The
platform virtualizes the entire data center and uses AI,
high-performance computing (HPC) and physics-based simulation to
significantly improve data center energy efficiency by up to
30%.
The Cadence Reality platform’s integration with NVIDIA
Omniverse™ brings OpenUSD data interoperability and physically
based rendering to the digital twin solution—helping accelerate
data center design and simulation workflows by 30X.
Second, the companies are collaborating on generative AI to
dramatically accelerate approaches to drug discovery. Cadence’s
cloud-native molecular design platform Orion® will now be
supercharged with NVIDIA’s generative AI tool, NVIDIA BioNeMo™, and
NVIDIA microservices for drug discovery to broaden therapeutic
design capabilities and shorten time to trusted results. The
collaboration brings together decades of expertise in scientific
software and accelerated computing from the two companies to
deliver transformative approaches to drug discovery. Accelerated by
on-demand GPU access at an unprecedented scale, pharmaceutical
companies can quickly and reliably generate and assess design
hypotheses across a range of therapeutic modalities, including
biologics, peptides and small molecules.
“The broadening collaboration between NVIDIA and Cadence is
having a transformative impact on everything from data center
design to drug discovery,” said Dr. Anirudh Devgan, president and
CEO, Cadence. “As AI rapidly becomes a keystone technology driving
data center and data center workload expansion, the Cadence Reality
Digital Twin Platform integration with NVIDIA Omniverse will
optimize every aspect of data center design and operations, use
energy more efficiently, and pave the way for a more efficient,
resilient, and environmentally friendly future. Our groundbreaking
efforts with NVIDIA to integrate BioNeMo with our industry-leading
Orion molecular design tools hold great promise for unlocking new
ideas and transforming the future of therapeutics and drug
discovery. Together, NVIDIA and Cadence are leading the AI
revolution.”
“Digital twins will transform manufacturing, drug discovery and
countless other industries,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of
NVIDIA. “Using NVIDIA Omniverse and generative AI technologies,
Cadence can deliver simulation and digitalization technologies to
benefit individuals, companies and societies in ways we have yet to
imagine.”
Growing Importance of Digital Twin Technology
Digital twin technology is increasingly becoming critical to
designers and operators of complex data center systems in the AI
era as through creating a virtual replica of a physical system, it
can use real-time data to simulate its behavior, performance and
interactions in various conditions. The Cadence Reality platform
provides visibility across the entire value chain, enabling data
center designers and operators to simulate the performance of
integrated liquid and air-cooling systems, visualize the
performance of data centers and plan for what-if scenarios.
The company’s collaboration with NVIDIA also expands the
capabilities of the Orion drug discovery platform by providing key
capabilities, including access to BioNeMo models for structure
prediction, small molecule generation and molecular property
prediction. Molecules generated with BioNeMo may then be profiled
and iteratively enhanced and designed with Orion tools.
Today’s announcements build upon Cadence and NVIDIA’s
long-standing collaboration in areas such as:
- AI-driven digital and custom IC design, including PPA, schedule
and cost reduction of NVIDIA GPUs with Cadence Innovus™ and Cadence
Cerebrus™ solutions
- Over 20 years of partnership in hardware and software
verification, including Palladium®, Protium™, and now Cadence
Verisium™ technologies
- System design and analysis, including GPU-optimized Cadence
Fidelity™ CFD Software and the revolutionary Cadence Millennium™
Enterprise Multiphysics Platform
These announcements also open a new chapter of Cadence’s
Intelligent System Design™ strategy to help customers develop
differentiated products across a wide range of industries and
market verticals.
