Cornelis and xFusion Deliver High-Performance Infrastructure for European Automotive

Jun 22, 2026 | By Startuprise io

Cornelis, a provider of intelligent networking solutions for AI and high-performance computing (HPC), and xFusion, a global computing infrastructure company, have announced a partnership to deliver high-performance infrastructure solutions for industrial HPC and AI applications across Europe, including automotive and advanced engineering projects.

The joint solution combines xFusion’s FusionServer platform with Cornelis’ CN5000 networking technology to support demanding engineering and simulation workloads such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD), crash testing simulations, structural analysis, digital twin modeling, and AI-powered design applications.

As companies adopt larger simulation projects and AI-driven development, the demand for computing infrastructure continues to grow. Engineering and research teams need to process larger amounts of data, deliver results faster, and scale their computing environments efficiently without creating performance issues.

Cornelis’ CN5000 networking platform provides the high speed, low latency connectivity needed for these demanding workloads. Combined with xFusion’s FusionServer infrastructure, the solution is designed to support complex high performance computing (HPC) environments.

The collaboration helps customers expand their HPC clusters more efficiently while maintaining strong and consistent application performance as computing needs grow.

The partnership is built on several years of working together across different generations of infrastructure and networking technologies. This experience has helped both companies support demanding HPC environments that require high performance and reliability.

The combined solution supports a variety of workloads, including computational fluid dynamics (CFD), crash simulations, structural analysis, digital twin modeling, large-scale data analytics, and AI-powered engineering applications.

The platform also addresses the growing need for energy efficient infrastructure. xFusion’s liquid cooled FusionServer systems work with Cornelis’ liquid-cooled networking technology to improve cooling efficiency, increase system density and enhance overall performance in large-scale deployments.

“As HPC and AI workloads continue to grow in scale and complexity, organizations need infrastructure that can scale efficiently without introducing bottlenecks,” said Lisa Spelman, CEO of Cornelis. “This collaboration combines high-performance compute and intelligent networking to help customers maximize utilization, accelerate engineering and AI-driven workflows, and improve efficiency across large-scale infrastructure environments.”

“Our FusionServer platforms are purpose-built for high-density HPC deployments,” said Frank Qin, CEO at xFusion Europe. “Together with Cornelis, we are helping customers build infrastructure environments optimized for large-scale modeling, simulation, and other data-intensive workloads.”
