Data Centers, Temperature, and Power
Discover the complexities of data center management, focusing on power consumption, temperature control, and the impact of AI on efficiency.
Today we’re going to talk about power, one of the single biggest costs to running a data center, how it has impacts far beyond a simple utility bill, and what role temperature plays in things. Also, your data center exists in the real world, and we haven’t (yet) learned to control the weather—so you also have to factor in fighting the external temperature when you’re bringing things back to ideal conditions. Understanding how the fundamental principles of physics and compute work—now more than ever—is a great place to start thinking about what the future holds and how it will impact our world, technologically, environmentally, and otherwise.
