Uniting accelerated computing, simulation-validated deployment and AI governance into one continuous AI factory platform
SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At ASUS AI Tech 2026, ASUS today redefined AI infrastructure from systems that run AI to platforms that build and operate AI factories. Working with NVIDIA and a growing ecosystem of technology partners — including Aleria, AMD, Crusoe, Foxlink, IBM, Intel, Samsung, Schneider Electric and WD — ASUS is enabling enterprises to move beyond standalone infrastructure to production-ready AI factories where performance, operational resilience and AI governance are engineered across the entire lifecycle.
ASUS also reinforced its unified AI infrastructure platform spanning accelerated computing, networking, storage, deployment software, AI operations and governance. By integrating infrastructure engineering, deployment and operational intelligence into a continuous platform, ASUS helps organizations shorten time to first token, accelerate time to revenue and optimize infrastructure efficiency while maintaining trusted AI at scale. This strategic evolution solidifies the role of ASUS as a pivotal end-to-end AI infrastructure partner, transforming computing capacity into tangible, business-driving AI innovation.
"ASUS is now comprehensively embracing its All in on AI strategic initiative, dedicated to embedding AI across infrastructure, commercial solutions, and innovative physical devices. As AI factories evolve into always-on production environments, infrastructure performance and AI governance can no longer be addressed separately. Infrastructure is the foundation of AI production itself. From the decisions that shape the first token to the controls that govern AI at scale, ASUS is engineering for what comes next—bringing compute, connectivity, power, cooling and automation together to turn every watt, every dollar and every minute invested into AI output." said Paul Ju, Senior Vice President, Head of Infrastructure Solution Business Group, ASUS.
AI governance starts before the first token
Building a trusted AI factory begins long before the first model is deployed. ASUS combines advanced system engineering with the NVIDIA DSX Sim Blueprint to help enterprises design, simulate, validate and optimize complete AI factories before physical deployment. Working with ecosystem partners including Schneider Electric, AVEVA and IBM, ASUS brings compute, networking, storage, power, cooling and facility infrastructure into a unified digital twin environment, enabling organizations to identify constraints, optimize configurations and reduce deployment risk before installation begins.
Once deployed, governance extends throughout AI operations. As agentic AI and physical AI become increasingly autonomous, organizations require continuous visibility, oversight, and operational control across models, data, tools and enterprise systems. Beyond the infrastructure management platforms, ACC (ASUS Control Center) and AIDC (ASUS Infrastructure Deployment Center), ASUS significantly extends these capabilities through its comprehensive AI Software Stack and Turnkey AI Applications. Within the AI Software Stack, customers gain direct access to essential tools such as Quota & Billing and an MLOps Portal. These facilitate efficient resource management within the data center, thereby accelerating overall operational speed. At the application level, the AI Software Stack acts as a crucial operational layer and cross-platform software stack. It functions as an 'operational harness', connecting enterprise governance directly with AI services and autonomous agents, enabling secure, manageable, and production-ready deployment of agentic AI.
Backed by advanced integration capabilities and a long-standing collaboration with NVIDIA, ASUS enables enterprises to accelerate AI from design to deployment and ongoing operations. Strong business growth reflects increasing market demand for integrated AI infrastructure that shortens time to first token, accelerates time to revenue and supports AI factories ranging from frontier-scale model development to enterprise, agentic and edge AI deployments.
Customer applications and AI factory implementation
Beyond foundational infrastructure, ASUS showcased AI's tangible impact through key partner demonstrations, illustrating real-world applications and emerging AI paradigms. Foxlink demonstrated next-level industrial automation with autonomous robotics, while Aleria highlighted the critical need for Sovereign AI deployments designed to support localized data control and secure operations. This holistic approach, combined with robust ASUS software-hardware integration and Kubernetes platforms, significantly shortens time-to-revenue for our customers. The ASUS vision extends beyond merely selling computing power; we deliver operational AI factories designed to continuously generate business value and drive the token economy.
Accelerating AI adoption for transformative growth
Looking ahead, ASUS is committed to continuously deepening its collaboration with NVIDIA and a growing global ecosystem of technology partners. By integrating accelerated computing, simulation-validated deployment, and AI harness engineering into one continuous governance framework, we empower organizations to protect their infrastructure investments and maintain control as AI applications grow in complexity and autonomy. Our overarching goal is to help enterprises transition from simply investing in AI to embedding intelligence across their entire operations. This strategic shift is designed to shorten time to revenue, improve efficiency of tokens per watt, significantly reduce resource waste and TCO, and ultimately build AI Factories engineered for peak performance, designed for adaptability, and governed for scalable growth.

Postauto treibt den Einsatz autonomer Fahrzeuge in der Ostschweiz voran und bereitet nach eigenen Angaben Europas grösstes Robo-Taxi-Netz vor. Das Bundesamt für Strassen (Astra) hat dem Unternehmen eine Ausnahmebewilligung erteilt, damit die speziell ausgerüsteten E-Autos im St. Galler Rheintal sowie in den Kantonen Appenzell Ausserrhoden und Appenzell Innerrhoden automatisch verkehren dürfen. Seit dem 1. Juni sind die Fahrzeuge in einem rund 80 Quadratkilometer grossen Gebiet unterwegs – vorerst noch zu Testzwecken und mit Sicherheitsfahrerinnen und -fahrern an Bord.
Herzstück des Projekts ist die Flotte von bis zu 25 sogenannten "AmiGo"-Fahrzeugen, die im Endausbau mit Automatisierungsgrad Level 4 fahren sollen. Postauto kooperiert dafür mit Apollo Go, der Robotaxi-Sparte des chinesischen Technologiekonzerns Baidu. Die Fahrzeuge werden im typischen Postauto-Gelb lackiert und elektrisch betrieben. Während der Testphase dürfen die Sicherheitsfahrer ihre Hände vom Lenkrad nehmen; sie können jedoch jederzeit eingreifen, wenn die Situation es erfordert – etwa an unübersichtlichen Verzweigungen oder bei forsch auftretendem Gegenverkehr.
Im Alltagstest auf einer festgelegten Route in Altstätten (SG) zeigt sich das System laut Projektbeteiligten bereits weitgehend stabil, auch wenn der Fahrkomfort in Kurven noch nicht an einen menschlichen Chauffeur heranreicht. Auffällig ist das sehr defensive Verhalten, etwa vor Fussgängerstreifen, wo das Fahrzeug früh abbremst, selbst wenn sich Personen noch in einiger Entfernung befinden. Gesteuert wird der Betrieb zusätzlich aus einer Leitstelle, in der Operatorinnen und Operatoren die Fahrten überwachen und bei Bedarf aus der Ferne eingreifen können.
Der reguläre Betrieb mit fahrerlosen Fahrzeugen ist ab 2027 vorgesehen. Postauto plant, dass Fahrgäste in der Region ihre autonome Fahrt dann probeweise per App buchen können. Astra-Direktor Jürg Röthlisberger sieht im automatisierten Fahren eine grosse Chance und spricht dem Projekt das Potenzial eines "Gamechangers" zu. Es ist nicht der erste Versuch mit selbstfahrenden Fahrzeugen in der Schweiz, aber nach Umfang und Einsatzgebiet der bislang weitreichendste. Die Technologie soll schrittweise verfeinert und insbesondere für ländliche Regionen erprobt werden, in denen flexible, bedarfsgesteuerte Angebote die bestehende Grunderschliessung ergänzen könnten.
