Vertiv™ Next Predict is a new AI-based service that combines field expertise and advanced machine learning algorithms to anticipate problems before they occur
Milan [January 27, 2026] – Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, announced Vertiv™ Next Predict, an AI-powered managed service that radically revolutionizes data center maintenance. Going beyond traditional models based on planned or reactive interventions, the service industrializes operations by analyzing the behavior of assets before risks materialize. Vertiv Next Predict is the latest evolution of Vertiv's portfolio of integrated AI infrastructures and is designed to deliver predictive intelligence across power, cooling and IT systems, creating a unified and resilient foundation for AI-driven data centers.
With the evolution of AI workloads, the data center industry is changing rapidly, and enterprises require greater visibility and control over critical infrastructure to ensure business continuity and performance at scale. Adopting advanced analytics and predictive maintenance strategies enables organizations to address these challenges and maintain consistent performance even in distributed environments.
“Data center operators need innovative technologies to anticipate potential risks as they increase the computational intensity and complexity of their infrastructure,” said Ryan Jarvis, vice president of the global services business unit at Vertiv. "Vertiv Next Predict helps data centers maximize uptime by shifting maintenance from a traditional calendar-based approach to a proactive, data-driven strategy. We move from guesswork to informed decisions, continuously monitoring equipment health and enabling the mitigation of risks before they can impact operations."
Vertiv Next Predict leverages AI-based anomaly detection to continuously analyze operating conditions and promptly identify deviations from expected behaviors, along with a predictive algorithm that evaluates potential operational impact to determine risk and prioritize action. Root cause analysis then isolates the factors contributing to the problem, supporting an efficient and targeted resolution. Based on system data and the specific operational context, corrective actions are defined and implemented, with preventive measures performed by qualified Vertiv™ Services personnel.
Designed for versatility and future development, Vertiv™ Next Predict currently supports a broad and expanding range of Vertiv™ power and cooling platforms, including battery energy storage solutions (BESS) and liquid cooling components. More importantly, the service has been designed with a scalable approach, to enable seamless integration with future data center technologies within a unified “grid-to-chip” services architecture. This future-oriented approach allows customers to adopt Vertiv Next Predict today, confident that it can evolve with their infrastructure needs.
The team of Vertiv Services boasts decades of experience in critical digital infrastructure services, a global network of Vertiv-trained engineers, and AI-powered advanced analytics capabilities.
