The prevention of outages has always been a top priority for data center owners and operators — but outages do occur. This report analyzes recent Uptime Institute data on IT and data center outages: their causes, costs and consequences.
Many operators expect GPUs to be highly utilized, but examples of real-world deployments paint a different picture. Why are expensive compute resources being wasted — and what effect does this have on data center power consumption?
Organizations currently performing AI training and inference leverage resources from a mix of facilities. However, most prioritize on-premises data centers, driven by data sovereignty needs and access to hardware.
