Identifying which liquid cooling architecture to design for

Australia’s data center market is entering a new phase of growth

Why a comprehensive fluid lifecycle management strategy helps set the stage for success in the liquid-cooled data center

The AI factory era has arrived

Winning the liquid cooling race requires a cultural shift – treating cold plate development as an evolving, continuous platform

Liquid cooling offers the performance and efficiency needed to manage the intense heat of GPU-driven workloads, reducing energy use while improving reliability

While much of the industry focus has centered on thermal performance alone, a growing challenge lies in the mechanical limitations imposed by conventional cooling technologies

The CDU is not merely a piece of equipment; it is a gateway to enhanced performance, sustainability, and reliability in the digital age

With AI operations, efficiency isn’t just about how much energy you consume. Rather, it’s about how much compute you produce from it, making output a more meaningful measure of performance

The smartest strategy isn’t choosing one approach over the other indefinitely, but aligning cooling decisions with current workload demands while maintaining flexibility

Built with scalability and flexibility at the core, AI pods enable operators to expand capacity as technology evolves – without rearchitecting their facilities

Making a choice comes down to the specific requirements of the liquid cooling architecture in each implementation

The transition to 800VDC represents a significant step forward in how data centers power high-density workloads – but it doesn’t require a complete reinvention of cooling

By focusing on design, deployment, and proactive maintenance, operators can harness the full potential of liquid cooling systems and specialized components

New problems, new solutions

The question is no longer whether the industry must move beyond air, but how quickly organizations transition from incremental cooling fixes to holistic thermal management by design

Adding liquid cooling to your existing data center can be complicated, but when done successfully, it effectively cools hotter workloads and keeps critical infrastructure running at peak uptime and efficiency

With Motivair liquid cooling solutions for AI factories managing pressure drop, ΔT, and flow rate, silicon like Nvidia or AMD isn’t just functional – it’s unleashed

Deploying liquid cooling doesn't just deliver a more efficient facility – done right, it can provide the agility required to support the next wave of AI demands

Immersion cooling on the horizon

A cool use case for ultra-violet light

Germany’s Energy Efficiency Act, with its demands for a PUE of 1.2, has reignited a debate: can a data center be both highly available and highly efficient?

The cost and efficiency benefits of cold plate and immersion cooling won't bring the breakthrough in energy performance the industry needs

Compare the systems weigh up the benefits carefully

The new world of cooling may end up looking a lot like the old world

Why has DCD been talking about air cooling this week?

The opportunistic behavior of modern processors means improved cooling can generate measurable performance benefits for IT equipment

Is it the future of cooling, or just a passing fad?
