Fourteen years after apparent proof that warmer is better, colocation companies are still struggling to turn their cooling systems down

Dealing with the hidden problems of dielectrics

Edge data centers aren’t all ISO shipping containers

It’s said that snow gives you two options: shovel or make snow angels. Now you have a third choice: cool your data center

New to these parts? Start here for the basic introduction

If you give your heat away for free, no one wants it. Put a price on it, and customers will form a line

Projects in the US and China have shown that data centers underwater could be more efficient than those on land. But how do you build them?

Two-phase liquid cooling has finally arrived. Vendors are making purpose-built liquid cooled servers

A new cooling technology debuted at COP26 - one which uses thermal energy to create vibrations that cool systems better

Is it possible to run a conventional cooling system - but use water instead of harmful refrigerant gases? We found a firm that thinks so

Chips are getting hotter, racks are getting denser. We need to start building the data center of tomorrow

Whether strawberries, cabbage, or cannabis, indoor farms are increasing in number. Will they soon start competing for the same space and power as data centers?

A land-based farm has finally produced plate-sized lobsters- thanks to a data center

Founder PS Lee believes that liquid cooling is the answer for tropical data center hubs such as Singapore and upcoming markets such as Indonesia

Thermal management is emerging as one of the most promising applications of AI

Re-using waste heat from servers is not a new idea, but it remains mired in challenges

Global leaders guide us through their answers, from a re-balancing of CAPEX to OPEX, to the increased role of plastic and tech to alleviate water consumption concerns

Keeping your qubits stable requires some of the most extreme cooling equipment around

DCD exclusive: Microsoft’s underwater data center experiment employed wave energy and post-quantum cryptography on the seabed off Scotland. But the big lessons could be learnt on land

Data centers include a massive amount of electrical devices, powered by buses and cables. Let’s look at moves to simplify that

Data center power consumption is costly - but servers are getting more efficient

There comes a point when water should be prioritized over air, but the question is when?

One degree warmer, and you might save three percent of your power

A sixfold increase in compute led to energy demands rising just six percent

We head to Sweden to watch data turn into pellets
