In the fast-evolving world of modern data centers and industrial facilities, the surge in AI and machine learning applications has made thermal management more critical than ever. The market is requiring high-density, AI-ready chillers designed for liquid cooling to shape tomorrow’s data centers cooling with the future in mind.
Why datacenters need more cooling capacity
As data centers continue to evolve and support increasingly complex and high-performance computing demands, the need for greater cooling capacity has become critical to maintain optimal efficiency, reliability, and performance of IT infrastructure.
Several factors contribute to the need for increased cooling capacity in modern data centers.
- The rise of cloud computing and streaming services has fuelled hyperscale demand for large data centers, which need powerful cooling solutions to maintain performance. Long-established air-based cooling systems struggle to keep pace with the intense heat generated by high-density data processing, accelerating the shift toward the adoption of advanced cooling solutions like liquid cooling, that delivers greater efficiency and performance.
- Increased data loads and the demand for high-performance computing, driven by IoT, AI, ML, 5G, and power-intensive components like GPUs and AI accelerators, are pushing data centers to significantly boost their cooling capacity.
- Edge computing creates additional challenges, as smaller, local data centers require highly efficient and scalable cooling systems to meet growing demands.
- Rising demands for reliability in data centers drive the need for larger, more resilient cooling systems capable of managing higher workloads, maintaining uninterrupted performance, redundancy, continuous operations in mission-critical environments minimizing system failure risks.
