SAN JOSE, Calif., March 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The following report is from Deepblue Finance——
Walking into the main hall of the San Jose McEnery Convention Center for NVIDIA GTC 2026, you might expect to be overwhelmed by a tidal wave of silicon and compute jargon. Yet, the one thing currently stopping top engineers and analysts in their tracks is a highly futuristic monolith standing solo in the core lobby area—the Panoramic Intelligent AI Rack.
Prominently displayed right behind it in the NVIDIA MGX ecosystem zone is Jensen Huang's quote: "Together with our incredible MGX ecosystem, we are building the AI infrastructure of the next industrial revolution." The appearance of this rack turns that grand vision into a tangible physical reality.
The initial visual impact of the Panoramic Intelligent AI Rack comes from its outer shell. In live demonstrations, the glass panels—initially as deep and opaque as a black hole—instantaneously switch to fully transparent in sync with the compute workload, revealing the high-speed, RGB-illuminated server arrays humming inside. But to Silicon Valley engineers, this is far more than just visual "compute aesthetics."
As AI enters the era of the NVIDIA Rubin NVL72 architecture, compute density is approaching physical limits. Traditional metal racks are not only excessively heavy, but their internal thermal state is essentially a "black box." Leveraging the high-temperature rigidity and exceptional thermal emissivity of its crystalline substrates, this rack reconstructs the physical barrier into an active thermally conductive boundary. More importantly, it solves the Achilles' heel of liquid cooling systems: the hidden danger of "blind mating." The panoramic interface elevates high-pressure liquid cooling's black-box operations into a visualized, precision alignment engineering, eliminating the risk of fluid leakage at its physical root. Furthermore, compared to traditional steel racks, the aerospace-grade V1.2 glass architecture utilized by this cabinet significantly reduces the overall weight while maintaining extreme structural rigidity.
If you look closely at this rack, along with its accompanying precision coolant distribution units (CDUs) and heat dissipation carriers, you will clearly see the mark of YUANS. However, a hardware masterpiece that fuses top-tier materials science, complex fluid dynamics, and cutting-edge AI protocols is clearly not something a single company can accomplish alone. According to analysts well-versed in the supply chain, this rack was co-developed by Lens Technology, a leading AI hardware powerhouse, and Yuans. Lens Technology's profound expertise in aerospace-grade glass processing and precision manufacturing explains how this seemingly impossible physical form factor was realized with such high-level craftsmanship. It declares to the market that the next leap in the AI revolution lies not only in advanced chip nodes, but also in the radically new physical structures and materials science required to house that compute power.

GTC 2026 Live: This "Breathing" Glass Rack Reveals the Physical Form of Next-Gen AI Compute as an Intelligent Lifeform
Multi-phase, multi-region rollout will deliver advanced AMD AI silicon and the open AMD ROCm software stack to frontier-model, enterprise, and sovereign AI customers across global markets
SINGAPORE, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- OneQode, a global provider of mission-critical digital infrastructure, today announced a collaboration with AMD to deploy AMD Instinct™ GPUs, as well as announcing plans to deploy AMD Helios rack-scale solution as the platform foundation for OneQode's global AI infrastructure rollout.
OneQode plans a phased rollout anchored by AMD Instinct™ MI355X GPUs in initial deployments and incorporating AMD Helios solution in the future. The deployment will run on the open AMD ROCm™ software stack, giving customers a standards-based, vendor-neutral foundation for large-scale AI training and inference.
The announcement follows OneQode's recently announced 110MW AI infrastructure agreement with Bitzero in Norway, and reflects the company's broader strategy to deploy high-performance AI capacity across Europe and Asia-Pacific. It leverages their existing cloud and telecommunications footprint deployed across 5 continents over the last 7 years, and will also incorporate their unique low-latency, sovereignty-focused product offerings.
OneQode expects to support a range of high-performance AI workloads, powered by AMD AI solutions, including frontier-model training and inference, enterprise AI, and sovereign AI for governments, research institutions, and AI-first organisations.
"Demanding AI workloads require high-performance compute, scalable infrastructure and an open software ecosystem," said Negin Oliver, corporate vice president, Business Development for AI, AMD. "AMD Instinct GPUs and the unifying AMD ROCm open software stack are designed to help customers accelerate large-scale AI training and inference with the performance, efficiency and flexibility they need. We're pleased to work with OneQode as it expands access to AMD AI solutions for customers globally."
"AMD is shipping some of the most compelling AI hardware in the market," said Matthew Shearing, Founder and CEO of OneQode, "The challenge now is putting that silicon in the right places - close to the customers, sovereign workloads, and AI-first organisations that need it. That's what OneQode does. We've spent nearly a decade building performance infrastructure across Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the global south, serving the kinds of workloads where uptime, latency and sovereignty actually matter. We're aiming to be AMD's partner of choice for extending AMD Instinct silicon at scale into the regions that need it most."
"We're genuinely pumped to be working with AMD," said Joe Swinn, Head of Product at OneQode. "We've been deploying infrastructure at scale globally for seven years, including some blazing-fast AMD EPYC processor-based private cloud builds, and this is one we've been waiting for. The AMD Instinct MI355X is a serious piece of silicon, and AMD Helios is built for the kinds of AI workloads our customers actually want to run. The AMD team have been brilliant to deal with, and we can't wait to get this kit in front of customers."
