As data centers continue to support cloud computing, AI workloads, and edge applications, cooling is no longer just a background utility—it has become a defining factor in reliability, efficiency, and long-term operating cost. Modern facilities rarely rely on a single “best” cooling method. Instead, operators choose from multiple cooling system types based on rack density, site conditions, energy strategy, [...]

 In a data center, power availability is only the starting point. As facilities grow in size and complexity, operators need to understand where power is being consumed, how it is distributed, and whether the infrastructure can safely support future expansion. This is where Power Distribution Units (PDUs) play a critical role.Modern PDUs are no longer simple power strips. They have become an essential [...]

For more than a decade, air cooling has been the “default answer” for data centers. It is mature, reliable, well understood, and has supported large-scale growth from traditional enterprise IT to early cloud computing. However, as computing paradigms evolve—higher-power chips, more centralized workloads, and denser deployment models—cooling has gradually shifted from a supporting system to a design constraint. Against [...]

Why Data Center Efficiency Is No Longer Just About Power When data center efficiency is discussed, many people still instinctively think in terms of “how much power is consumed” or “what the PUE looks like.” But in real-world data center operations, efficiency has never been a single-point issue. While servers consume electricity, they also continuously generate heat. How that [...]

As AI, HPC, and high-density computing workloads become the norm in data centers, cooling is no longer a “supporting system,” but a core piece of infrastructure that directly affects compute performance, energy efficiency, and long-term operational costs. Against this backdrop, Direct-to-Chip (D2C) liquid cooling is moving from niche deployments to large-scale adoption and has become one of the most [...]

For more than a decade, PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) has been the cornerstone metric for managing energy efficiency in data centers. However, with cooling technologies evolving rapidly, rack densities climbing—especially in AI and HPC environments with high heat-flux servers—and operators bearing greater responsibility for sustainable resource management, WUE (Water Usage Effectiveness) is quickly emerging as an equally critical benchmark. [...]

By 2025, liquid cooling has become a mature and reliable technology in modern data centers — especially in AI training, high-performance computing (HPC), and edge computing environments. Once considered experimental, it is now a core element of mainstream infrastructure planning. Many operators are integrating or planning to deploy liquid cooling systems in new data centers to handle higher-density workloads [...]
