AMPHIX is designed to validate AI infrastructure before customers commit to permanent production campuses. [[1]](https://www.storagereview.com/news/rt-one-becomes-first-amphix-customer-certifying-one-ai-stack-to-deploy-across-the-americas)\n\nRT-One is expected to use a planned AMPHIX Center of Excellence near Colusa, California, to test and optimize compute, networking, thermal-management and orchestration configurations. RAVEL’s Orchestrate AI software will manage workloads across the environment, while the validated configuration is intended to become a standardized deployment block for RT-One’s infrastructure network across the Americas. [[1]](https://www.storagereview.com/news/rt-one-becomes-first-amphix-customer-certifying-one-ai-stack-to-deploy-across-the-americas)\n\nThe reported customer designation follows RT-One’s June selection of RAVEL as a strategic technology partner for a federated infrastructure model spanning Brazil and the United States. RT-One’s disclosed pipeline includes a 400MW AI campus under development in Uberlândia, Brazil, which RAVEL described as powered entirely by renewable energy. [[2]](https://rt-one.com/en/artigos/rt-one-selects-ravel-to-deliver-unprecedented-scalability-for-sovereign-ai-infrastructure-across-the-americas-ravel-inc)\n\n## The Deal\n\nAMPHIX combines infrastructure-ready land, power, cooling, secure networking, certified compute and storage systems, and workload-orchestration software. Its Centers of Excellence are intended to provide production-grade validation environments where customers can test workloads and operating policies before making larger infrastructure commitments. [[1]](https://www.storagereview.com/news/rt-one-becomes-first-amphix-customer-certifying-one-ai-stack-to-deploy-across-the-americas)[[3]](https://ravelinc.com/blog/introducing-the-amphix-ai-infrastructure-platform/)\n\nFor RT-One, the stated objective is to certify one repeatable configuration and carry it into later deployments. Local regulatory adaptations may be made at the affected infrastructure layers while the core technology and operating policies remain standardized.

StorageReview reported that Strata Expanse will supply the physical infrastructure foundation, including land, power, cooling and secure connectivity, while RAVEL will handle technology certification, deployment validation and operator training. [[1]](https://www.storagereview.com/news/rt-one-becomes-first-amphix-customer-certifying-one-ai-stack-to-deploy-across-the-americas)\n\nThe validation program is expected to cover workload behavior, thermal conditions, energy consumption, cost controls and orchestration policies. The site is also intended to support customer-environment preparation before RT-One’s permanent campuses are available.

The model is intended to direct workloads across on-premises, cloud and hybrid environments according to requirements such as sovereignty, resiliency, latency, operating cost and sustainability. [[2]](https://rt-one.com/en/artigos/rt-one-selects-ravel-to-deliver-unprecedented-scalability-for-sovereign-ai-infrastructure-across-the-americas-ravel-inc)\n\nThe company’s strategy is built around connecting infrastructure in markets where power availability, renewable resources, connectivity and regulatory conditions support customer requirements. The Uberlândia campus is one disclosed anchor for that strategy, with 400MW of planned capacity.
