NVIDIA Minerva: Observability Built for AI Factory Yield

AI factories are judged on yield, not uptime, and the thing that destroys yield is rarely a clean failure. It is a GPU running a few degrees hot, an NVMe drive losing throughput under load, a cable degrading just enough to slow every collective operation on the ring. NVIDIA launched Minerva on October 22, 2026 to find those before they cost you a training run. This is what it actually does, how it compares to the DCGM and Prometheus stack you already run, and which of its claims are still unverified.
