Cadence Design Systems has said that it recognizes India as a critical hub for innovation and data-driven growth and is committed to deepening its footprint in the region's data center sector.

Speaking to DIGITIMES Asia recently, Melika Roshandell, product management group director, and Mark Fenton, product engineering director, at Cadence, said that the company's strategy includes investing in localized R&D efforts, tailoring solutions for India's unique market, and engaging with ecosystem partners to drive joint innovation.

"We actively seek collaboration opportunities with Indian technology companies, academic institutions, and government initiatives to foster skills development and co-innovation," Roshandell said. "By combining local expertise with Cadence's global leadership in AI and design innovation, we aim to accelerate growth in India's data center and semiconductor landscape, establishing a foundation for long-term success."

India's data center market is expected to experience significant growth, with the market size projected to expand by 6.53 percent between 2025 and 2029, reaching a value of US$11.85 billion by 2029, according to data from Statista.

Offering Reality DC Design

At the heart of Cadence's data center interests is Reality DC Design, a solution aimed at optimizing data center and system design. The tool employs digital twin technology to create virtual models of current or planned data centers.

By simulating the entire data center ecosystem, it leverages artificial intelligence, high-performance computing (HPC), and physics-based simulation to enhance energy efficiency, with potential improvements of up to 30 percent.

"By integrating advanced AI algorithms into its design and operation workflows, Reality DC enables predictive analytics for system performance and resource allocation," said Roshandell. "This empowers data center operators to anticipate and mitigate potential inefficiencies or failures, significantly reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency in line with the dynamic requirements of India's burgeoning digital ecosystem."
