NSE deploys direct-to-chip liquid cooling for AI infrastructure, plans to scale to 224 GPUs
NSE said the deployment is the first of its kind in Indian capital markets. The technology enables high-density GPU computing through a scalable cooling architecture designed for compute-intensive AI workloads.
The infrastructure has been deployed at NSE's on-premises data centre. It is designed to strengthen data sovereignty and retain control over AI data, computing resources and access. The setup will also support the exchange's security governance and regulatory compliance requirements.
NSE said the cooling technology would help accommodate growing AI computing requirements. The exchange also plans to extend DCLC technology to its co-location data centre in the near future, based on the requirements of market participants.
The exchange said its current infrastructure includes multiple GPUs. It plans to expand capacity beyond 80 GPUs during the current quarter. The facility has been designed to scale up to 224 GPUs across high-density racks.
Viral Mody, executive director of NSE, said the deployment would help prepare the exchange for evolving computing requirements. He added that the initiative reflects its focus on resilient infrastructure, operational efficiency and responsible technology adoption.
Sampath Manickam, chief technology officer of NSE, said AI workloads require higher computing density, power and cooling capacity. The DCLC deployment provides a scalable foundation for high-density GPU computing, he added.
NSE began operations in 1994 and introduced electronic screen-based trading in India. Its businesses include exchange listings, trading, clearing and settlement services, indices and market data.
