The AI disruption: Challenges and guidance for data center design
Energy Management Research Center
Data centers are nerve centers that connect the digital world. These hubs enable global trade and round-the-clock access to the internet, which in turn has shortened the amount of time it takes to send a message from one continent to another.
The rapid growth of AI has changed the way organizations design and operate their data centers. From power to cooling, AI workloads have a significant influence on a data center’s physical infrastructure.
This paper from Schneider Electric explains important AI attributes that might create challenges for data centers.
What you will learn:
- The type of workloads that are estimated to consume the most power
- An overview of networking demands that come from AI workloads
- A prediction of the type of cooling that will be preferred in the future
