Densification is β once again β high on the agenda, with runaway expectations largely due to compute power requirements of generative AI workloads. Will this time be different? Uptimeβs 2024 global survey of data center managers offers some clues.
Adoption of direct liquid cooling (DLC) continues to grow slowly, according to recent Uptime research. However, more operators are considering it for future use due to mounting thermal management and sustainability challenges.
Results from the Uptime Institute Supply Chain Survey 2023 reveal that data center owners and operators are continuing to suffer supply chain delays, but these appear to be less frequent and severe than in 2022.
Uptime has delivered assessments of data center operations for over a decade. In this session, we present what we've learned and how those lessons can be applied to stabilize your organization in the face of climate and macroeconomic challenges.
Rack power density is a key metric that informs engineers in making design choices for data centers. This data report tracks changes in power densities since 2018, showing a trend towards greater server and rack power.
Shifts in business expectations and technical requirements are moving data center operators towards direct liquid cooling. There are hurdles to overcome, but many in the industry expect this evolution to be just a matter of time.
Edge computing is expected to require large numbers of small-scale data centers located close to their end-users. This report profiles suppliers of different types of small-scale edge facilities and their products and services.
While only 18% of Uptime Institute Data Center survey respondents rely solely on a water-based system, Uptime Institute believes that a nitrogen-charged, dry-pipe or preaction, water-based solution is the most appropriate fire suppression system inβ¦
