NVIDIA and Palantir Technologies announced a collaboration on Monday to create an integrated AI and analytics technology stack for enterprise and government systems.
This partnership, revealed at NVIDIA’s GTC conference in Washington, D.C., merges NVIDIA’s accelerated computing with Palantir’s data intelligence platform. This aims to establish an operational AI solution. Lowe’s is the initial adopter, utilizing the integrated technology to construct a digital replica of its global supply chain. This network includes 7,500 vendors, 130 distribution centers, and over 1,700 stores. The retailer intends to achieve dynamic AI optimization to manage real-time disruptions.
Seemantini Godbole, Lowe’s executive vice president and chief digital and information officer, stated, “Modern supply chains are incredibly complex, dynamic systems, and AI will be critical to helping Lowe’s adapt and optimize quickly amid constantly changing conditions. By combining Palantir technologies with NVIDIA AI, Lowe’s is reimagining retail logistics, enabling us to serve customers better every day.” The system employs NVIDIA’s cuOpt decision optimization software to reoptimize shipping routes, reallocate capacity, and recommend strategies based on cost, availability, and demand. The platform automatically generates new plans when disruptions occur.
The collaboration integrates NVIDIA’s CUDA-X data science libraries, Nemotron reasoning models, and GPU-accelerated computing into Palantir’s Ontology framework. This integration allows enterprises to develop domain-specific AI agents and automation tools for sectors such as healthcare, finance, defense, and retail.
Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA, affirmed, “Palantir and NVIDIA share a vision: to put AI into action, turning enterprise data into decision intelligence.” He added, “By combining Palantir’s powerful AI-driven platform with NVIDIA CUDA-X accelerated computing and Nemotron open AI models, we’re creating a next-generation engine to fuel AI-specialized applications and agents that run the world’s most complex industrial and operational pipelines.” The companies intend to integrate NVIDIA’s forthcoming Blackwell architecture into Palantir’s AI Platform to enhance end-to-end AI workflows. The partnership also supports NVIDIA’s recently announced AI Factory for Government reference design, targeting federal agencies and regulated industries requiring elevated privacy and security standards.
