In today’s era of “computing closer to the user,” data is no longer confined to large, distant data centers. To meet the growing demand for low latency, high reliability, and flexible deployment, micro data centers (MDC) have emerged as a key enabler of edge computing. They integrate the core functions of traditional data centers into a highly compact, plug-and-play [...]
Liquid cooling is becoming a core infrastructure for next-generation high-performance data centers. With AI model training, cloud computing, and high-performance computing (HPC) driving increasing compute density, data centers now demand unprecedented thermal control precision and energy efficiency. Compared to air-based cooling, liquid cooling uses the high heat capacity and thermal conductivity of coolant to efficiently transfer heat directly from [...]
With the continuous growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC), data centers are expanding rapidly. According to the Uptime Institute 2024 Global Data Center Survey, nearly two-thirds of data centers have increased their rack power density over the past three years. As rack heat densities rise, operators are seeking more efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly cooling solutions, [...]
Direct-to-Chip Liquid Cooling (D2C) is a high-efficiency thermal management technology that removes heat directly from chip surfaces. It is specifically designed to meet the demanding cooling requirements of High-Performance Computing (HPC), Artificial Intelligence (AI) training clusters, and ultra-high-density servers. According to Grand View Research (2024), the global D2C market is valued at approximately $1.96 billion and is projected to [...]
A Chilled Water System is a central air conditioning solution widely used in large buildings, data centers, and industrial facilities. It produces low-temperature chilled water through a chiller and delivers it to terminal cooling devices (such as fan coil units or air handling units) to cool and regulate indoor environments. Unlike split-type AC units, chilled water systems offer centralized [...]
DCIM (Data Center Infrastructure Management) is a category of systems that combines IT management with facility management, providing unified monitoring, administration, and optimization of the physical infrastructure of data centers—including power, cooling, racks, and cabling—as well as IT assets. It goes beyond simply recording where devices are located; it delivers real-time insights into how they are performing and [...]
In recent years, the rapid development of artificial intelligence and large-scale models has made data centers indispensable. As heat density continues to rise, energy efficiency has become an increasingly pressing issue. According to a 2023 report by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), U.S. data centers already consume about 4.4% of national electricity, and this proportion is projected to [...]
With the explosive growth of global data and enterprises’ urgent demand for flexible and scalable IT infrastructure, traditional data centers face a series of challenges, including long deployment cycles, high capital expenditure, limited space, and complex operations. According to IDC, global data is expected to reach 175 ZB by 2025, more than five times the volume in 2020. [...]
Introduction AI models are growing at a geometric pace. Training large language models often requires thousands of GPUs running in parallel, with each GPU consuming more than 500 watts—and future chips may even surpass 1,000 watts. Such high energy use drives rack heat density to extreme levels, making traditional air cooling insufficient for managing hotspots. At the same time, [...]
In modern society, reliable power supply is crucial for homes, offices, and corporate data centers. The Uptime Institute's 2024 Annual Power Outage Analysis Report indicates that electricity remains the leading cause of power outages (52%). To minimize this, a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) has become essential, and the core component is the UPS battery. What is a UPS [...]
