Can the servers inside a data center make the walls and floors greener? Researchers at Meta and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are using artificial intelligence to reduce the environmental impact of concrete.
Insights: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
Machine learning and artificial intelligence have arrived in the data center, changing the face of the hyperscale server farm as racks begin to fill with ASICs, GPUs, FPGAs and supercomputers. The race to leverage machine learning is led by the industry’s marquee names, including Google, Facebook and IBM. As usual, the battlefield runs through the data center, with implications for the major cloud platforms and chipmakers like Intel and NVIDIA.
Data Center Migration: How to Optimize the Transition
No matter the reason for migration, it’s a complicated endeavor, and must be executed without error. Flexential outlines seven migration best practices that will minimize downtime and ensure the migration process runs smoothly.
CFD Simulations Validate Data Center Cooling Designs
Kao Data was determined to design their new data centers to be as energy efficient as possible. Future Facilities explores how computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations can be used to validate the design of data center cooling systems.
Living on the Edge
The edge is no longer a specific size or as precise of a place as it once was, but just because it has grown more complex doesn’t mean that we can’t distinguish what or where it is. Sean Farney, Director of Data Center Marketing at Kohler Power Systems explores the ever evolving definition of the edge.
Digital Twin Technology Deployed at Innovative French Colocation Data Center
When looking to the future of the data center industry, the ability to remain agile, accommodate high density and be able to satisfy stringent carbon efficiency goals will be crucial. Future Facilities explores how an innovative French colocation data center provider uses digital twin technology to accomplish this.
