DCD>Debate: Liquid cooling dilemma - Embrace innovation or risk operational disaster?
If liquid cooling is going to be the future, how sure are you making the right choices today? Isn't it concerning to choose your future cooling when there is no clear leader? Is it smart to open Pandora's box and let escape a new, un-tested liquid system that creates new concerns around corrosion, leaks, and chemical compatibility?
Amidst a flood of dielectric fluid options, the data center industry faces critical decisions. Concerns over fluid selection, PFAS regulations, and sustainability targets are already impacting the discussions for choosing the right cooling components. What are the different approaches for D2C cooling? When should immersion be brought into the conversation? With a lack of clear standardization, choosing the correct Cooling Distribution Units (CDUs) looks like an increasing gamble as operators are unclear on how well they will perform.
Held under Chatham House Rule, DCD>Debates are open discussions led by a panel of experts, on the biggest issues to face the industry.
