As AI workloads grow and data centers of all types adapt to support high-density computing, preparing liquid-ready ...
Liquid cooling is at a pivotal point in its evolution as it moves out of its niche in high-performance computing (HPC) and into a growing number of data centers. This trend is being driven by the high ...
Federal agencies need to ensure their data centers can withstand the effects of climate change, from record-breaking temperatures to unexpected outages and changing weather patterns across the globe.
As rack densities surge and grid headroom tightens, liquid cooling is becoming the backbone of AI data centers. Here we ...
Three years ago, the data center industry debated whether liquid cooling would ever be necessary. Two years ago, most ...
Data centers stand at the forefront of innovation as the beating heart of the digital age. Mountains of data are processed, stored, and disseminated to power everything from AI-driven applications to ...
High-density computing workloads like AI training and inference run too hot for traditional air cooling. Companies are increasingly adopting liquid cooling technologies, even in traditional air-cooled ...
Global computing power is growing aggressively and pushing high-density chip power consumption. As this power density increases, traditional air cooling is reaching its physical limits, and ...
Air cooling limits Air cooling starts to reach its limits once you get over 20 kilowatts per rack. Typical air-cooling systems top out at 15 to 20 kilowatts, and row-based cooling with containment ...
While liquid cooling is rightly considered an emerging technology, it’s not new. Early IBM mainframes from the 1960s and Cray supercomputers featured liquid cooling. Notably, a full-time technician ...
As data center power demand surges, tech companies are looking for ways to trim electricity use wherever they can. Cooling is an obvious place to start, since it can account for around 40% of a data ...
"After a few years installing and working with liquid-cooled transmitters, my feelings about them are mixed," writes.
