In November 2022, ChatGPT burst onto the scene and turned what had been a futuristic R&D concept into an accessible reality for students, developers, and businesses worldwide. Its rapid mainstream adoption – outpacing even the internet and personal computers – signalled a tipping point for AI, highlighting the technology’s potential to transform every corner of the digital world.
But here’s the big question: can data centre operators keep pace with the astronomical demands of AI, which require ever-higher rack densities, significant power upgrades, and a new approach to cooling? We explore this question in our latest Trend Report, Data Centres in the Age of AI.
Inside this report, you’ll get:
- An overview of the AI-driven investment boom, including Google’s billion-dollar UK expansion, as well as Microsoft’s pledge to spend $80 billion on global data centre growth.
- A look into the challenges that AI presents the data centre sector, such as the need to reconsider air cooling as higher rack densities necessitate the switch to liquid cooling.
- An inside track on what industry leaders at Kao Data, Colt DCS, Iceotope, and others believe is changing behind the scenes.
- An understanding of what the best practices are for the AI era, helping you discover what cooling methods to use, and how to ensure a reliable energy supply.
- A peek into the future, as we discover whether AI is here to stay and whether it can actually live up to its lofty promises.
