7x24 Exchange Fall Event Preview: Focus on Emerging Technologies for Mission-Critical Data Centers The theme of the upcoming 7x24 Exchange International 2024 Fall Conference is on "Emerging Technologies" for ensuring end-to-end reliability in mission-critical facilities and data centers. The event is set for Oct. 20-23 in Phoenix, Arizona, a fitting choice of location. As cited by the Greater Phoenix Economic Council, with over 300 megawatts (MW) of existing data center inventory and additional 250 MW planned for the near future, the region is widely known as the nation's fifth largest data center market. #datacenter #hyperscale #colocation #AI #edge #MissionCritical #infrastructure #Phoenix #7x24Exchange https://lnkd.in/eTtgjwWs

Immersion fluids allow data centers to extend hardware lifespans, reduce energy consumption, and improve energy efficiency. Here's how.

Voice of the Industry: Improving Data Center Management with Centralized Intelligence In this engaging guest article, Wesco Data Center Solutions VP Alan Farrimond explains how a platform-based approach to data center software reduces administrative overhead for operators while improving outcomes. "IT teams are finding that they need additional tools to close the gaps left by DCIM," writes Farrimond. "They are using an array of applications to optimize their data center environments, driving the need for a platform-based approach." #datacenter #colocation #DCIM #hyperscale #AI #infrastructure #software #management Read on: https://lnkd.in/ejb3NRZF

Westinghouse eVinci Microreactor Could Yield 5 MW of Nuclear Power Every 8 Years for AI Data Centers Can Westinghouse Electric Company provide commercial nuclear power with their microreactor before the end of the decade? In September, the company announced it submitted its eVinci Microreactor Preliminary Safety Design Report (PSDR) to the Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC). Westinghouse is the first reactor developer to have done so, in support of siting its test reactor at NRIC’s Demonstration of Microreactor Experiments (DOME) test bed at Idaho National Laboratory (INL). The company said the move advances the eVinci microreactor's testing for the commercial market, including data centers. #datacenter #AI #onsite #power #cloud #hyperscale #colocation #nuclear #microreactor #SMR David Chernicoff National Reactor Innovation Center | NRIC Office of Nuclear Energy, U.S. Department of Energy https://lnkd.in/gmEqXZeF

Podcast: Turn-Key Data Center Liquid Cooling with Park Place Technologies and ZutaCore For this episode of the Data Center Frontier Show podcast, we spoke with Chris Carreiro, Chief Technology Officer for Park Place Technologies, and Manfreid Chua, Vice President - Business Development, AI & Sustainability for ZutaCore, about how the companies' partnership is enhancing liquid cooling technology prospects for sustainable AI computing. In September, Park Place announced the expansion of its portfolio of IT infrastructure services to include the two major liquid cooling formats for data centers, i.e immersion liquid cooling and direct-to-chip cooling. ZutaCore is a key developer and supplier of direct-to-chip, waterless liquid cooling technology which formally supports NVIDIA's GPUs. #datacenter #cooling #liquidcooling #hyperscale #colocation #AI #infrastructure #podcast Tune in:? https://lnkd.in/dpSv6vb2

ECL Debuts 1 GW Off-Grid Hydrogen-Powered 'AI Factory' Data Center On 600 Acres Near Houston As located on its 600-plus acre site east of Houston, ECL said the initial phase of TerraSite-TX1 will be delivered in the summer of 2025 at a cost of approximately $450 million, with 50 MW of data center capacity to be utilized by cloud and AI operators. “While others talk about delivering off-grid, hydrogen-powered data centers in five, ten, or 20 years, only ECL is giving the AI industry the space, power, and peace of mind they and their customers need, now,” said ECL co-founder and CEO Yuval Bachar. “The level of innovation that we have introduced to the market is unprecedented and will serve not only us and our customers but the entire data center industry for decades to come.” #AI #cloud #gigawatt #Houston #hydrogen #datacenter #hyperscale #colocation #infrastructure #energy #cleanenergy #sustainability Wilson C. https://lnkd.in/e28_ahc4
