SymphonyAI’s IRIS Foundry on Microsoft Azure Integrates with NVIDIA Omniverse Libraries

As industrial organizations increasingly move from AI pilots to full-scale production, they face complex challenges: how to visualize and optimize diverse, distributed operations in real time; how to break down data silos across sites and assets; and how to empower teams with actionable insight for better, faster decisions. This solution—integrating NVIDIA Omniverse libraries into IRIS Foundry, running in Microsoft Azure—enables users to build dynamic applications within minutes using IRIS Forge. These applications support collaborative simulations, 3D visualizations, and interactive modelling, while enhancing operational intelligence and allowing one-click deployment to the Azure cloud.

Built on Microsoft Azure’s cloud and edge infrastructure, the integration uses Azure Kubernetes Service for orchestration, Azure Entra ID for secure access, Azure Edge Runtime for near-real-time processing, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) for native connectivity with Microsoft 365 Copilot and Teams.

Why Now?

The pressure to digitalize operations is accelerating, yet building dynamic applications using Agentic AI remains a massive, real-world challenge. With Vertical AI representing a $344 billion opportunity, enterprises face rising demand for flexible, secure, and scalable models. SymphonyAI is meeting this need by empowering users to leverage IRIS Forge to ideate faster and rapidly develop advanced simulations and visualizations through prompt-based coding.

What Makes This Integration Unique?

This isn’t simply another 3D rendering tool or digital twin software. It marks the rise of the frontier firm in industrial operations—where vertical-specific AI, interactive modeling, and advanced workflows unite in a single platform. Manufacturers, energy providers, and process companies can now optimize performance, safety, and productivity at every step of their value chains.

Key Innovations and Integration Highlights

• Integrated App Builder with OpenUSD Interoperability:
  
  
  
  IRIS Forge now leverages NVIDIA Omniverse libraries for real-time 3D visualization, simulation, and live data interaction, allowing users to build dynamic industrial digital twin applications. This foundation is based on OpenUSD, ensuring interoperability with 3D and industrial data in a unified environment.

• Flexible, Scalable Deployment:
  
  
  
  Build apps once and deploy anywhere – Azure cloud, on-premises, or edge – to match preferred security and performance needs.

• Accelerated Digital Twin Creation:
  
  
  
  Ready-made templates and camera integration speed up digital twin modeling and process simulation, reducing risk and boosting efficiency.

• Collaborative, High-Fidelity Simulation:
  
  
  
  Enable distributed teams to view, edit, and optimize live 3D models and workflows – driving smarter decisions with operational context.

• Actionable AI at Scale:
  
  
  
  Leverage IRIS Foundry’s secure, unified data layer and one of the world’s first large language model specifically trained on industrial data, developed in collaboration with Microsoft, to enrich every app with predictive insights and automated recommendations.

Enabling Custom Industrial AI Applications with Omniverse Integration

The heart of this innovation is SymphonyAI’s integration of NVIDIA Omniverse libraries into the IRIS Forge application builder, which is powered by the robust data connections and governance of IRIS Foundry. IRIS Forge serves as the development and deployment engine, allowing engineers and operators to rapidly build, customize, and launch industrial AI applications that leverage advanced Omniverse 3D visualization and modeling libraries. This empowers teams to create tailored solutions for their unique manufacturing and process environments, unlocking new possibilities for real-time simulation, scenario modeling, and actionable insights.

Supported by IRIS Foundry’s unified data foundation, which securely connects assets, systems, and contextual data across the organization, every custom app built in Forge is enriched with operational intelligence and enterprise interoperability. The result: scalable, secure, and flexible industrial applications that deliver sophisticated digital experiences, accelerate decision-making, and drive business value in hours—not months.
