Course Description

Increasing chip densities and high-powered processors are forcing data centers to consider what technologies they will need to implement to overcome the heat that new IT equipment produces. As a result, a growing number of enterprise and colocation providers are now embracing the opportunity liquid and immersion cooling represents. 

The aim of this learning activity is to introduce you to the use of immersion cooling in data centers by using a real-world case study.

This e-learning module forms part of the DCD>Academy online-learning library and can be used towards DCP or DCS recertification.
