Dense Computing Cooling solutions


In the last few years, many advances have been made in the field of dense computing in response to heavy cloud and compute demand. Cooling these requires a diverse set of approaches, as there is no one solution fits all approach. This talk will highlight many of these sometimes diverse and seemingly different technology approaches. Some of the topics we hope to touch upon will be:

  • High density cooling solutions market: What’s available today and where are we headed
  • Air vs. water – when is air not enough and why?
  • Data center facilities management and how to bridge the gap to get things done right
  • The importance of cooling flexibility in today’s data centers.

Innovative Cooling Approaches

The constant advances in computer technology and the growing adoption of these types of systems are allowing users to achieve new heights with their IT including the use of big data, artificial intelligence, internet of things, high-frequency trading, oil & gas, research and web scale applications.  This rapid rise in adoption has overtaken most colocation and enterprise facilities’ ability to cool these often-densified server racks on a large scale.  While many facilities publish the ability to provide cooling for higher than standard server racks on a watts per square foot basis, many if not all are unable to manage newer computer systems at that density on a large scale.  Colocation, enterprise, and all other data centers must consider how these new computers will interact within the environment they are placed in, educate themselves on the various solutions available to cool these dense servers and build cooling infrastructure that can support the latest computers being used today and in the future.   


 


Join us to discuss the new and existing cooling challenges when deploying high density racks in your data centers.
