Redesigning data centers for AI - Opportunities from retrofitting

This episode will stream live at 9:00am ET

With land and power at a premium in saturated Tier 1 & 2 markets, the possibility of retrofitting a data center remains a option to support high-density workloads, particularly in areas where demand for low-latency is high. However, retrofitting involves substantial upgrades to hardware and building infrastructure to prepare it for handling new types of workloads. This episode will explore:

  • How retrofit data centers are being developed in order to maximize space
  • The realities of safeguarding customer data during a retrofit
  • Key considerations in layout, power and cooling to accommodate high-density
  • The feasibility of retrofitting as a long-term solution to the AI rollout
