Vertiv Introduces Predictive, AI-Driven Data Centre Maintenance
Vertiv, a global leader in critical digital infrastructure, has announced the launch of Vertiv™ Next Predict, an artificial intelligence-powered managed service designed to fundamentally change how data centres are maintained.

The new service moves maintenance away from traditional time-based and reactive models to a predictive, data-driven approach that analyses asset behaviour and identifies risks before they impact operations. Vertiv Next Predict is the latest addition to Vertiv’s integrated AI infrastructure portfolio. It delivers predictive intelligence across power, cooling, and IT systems to support resilient, AI-ready data centres.
Addressing the Demands of AI-Driven Data Centres
As AI workloads continue to increase compute intensity and operational complexity, data centre operators face growing pressure to maintain visibility, control, and uptime across critical infrastructure.
Vertiv said the adoption of advanced analytics and predictive maintenance is essential for sustaining performance at scale. This is particularly the case in distributed and high-density environments.
“Data centre operators need innovative technologies to stay ahead of potential risks as infrastructures evolve,” said Ryan Jarvis, Vice President, Global Services Business Unit at Vertiv.
“Vertiv Next Predict helps unlock uptime by shifting maintenance from calendar-based routines to a proactive, data-driven strategy. By continuously monitoring equipment condition, we enable informed decisions and risk mitigation before operations are affected.”
How Vertiv™ Next Predict Works
Vertiv Next Predict uses AI-based anomaly detection to continuously monitor operating conditions and identify early deviations from normal performance. A predictive algorithm then evaluates the potential operational impact, assigns risk levels, and prioritises responses.
The service includes:
- Early anomaly detection to identify emerging risks
- Predictive risk assessment to prioritise corrective actions
- Root cause analysis to isolate contributing factors
- Prescriptive recommendations tailored to operational context
- Expert execution by Vertiv™ Services personnel
This end-to-end approach ensures faster resolution and more targeted maintenance interventions.
Built for Scalability and Future Technologies
Engineered for flexibility and long-term growth, Vertiv™ Next Predict currently supports a wide range of Vertiv power and cooling platforms. This includes battery energy storage systems (BESS) and liquid cooling technologies.
Vertiv noted that the service is designed to scale seamlessly as data centre technologies evolve, aligning with its grid-to-chip service architecture. This ensures customers can deploy the solution today while remaining future-ready.
Backed by Vertiv’s Global Services Expertise
The solution is supported by Vertiv’s global services organisation, which brings decades of experience in critical infrastructure management, a worldwide network of Vertiv-trained technicians, and advanced AI-powered analytics.
According to the company, this combination positions Vertiv Next Predict as a comprehensive solution for organisations seeking to improve uptime, efficiency, and resilience in next-generation data centres.
