Designing & Operating Data Centers for the Era of AI
Course Length: 6 hours
Artificial intelligence is impacting the hardware and software ecosystem, driving significant changes that put data centers at a risk of becoming inadequate to handle the new requirements. The rapid pace of innovation is increasing the difficulty in planning for future hardware needs without over investment or premature obsolescence. To achieve maximum performance while reducing energy consumption, data centers must be designed and operated by professionals whose knowledge evolves as quickly. This ASHRAE course examines data center best practices by focusing on ASHRAE’s evolving thermal guidelines for data processing environments, including the latest guidance around liquid cooling. While there are opportunities to save energy in data centers, understanding of equipment trends, performance measurements, and effectiveness are critical to the principal objective: Data integrity and facility uptime.
