Digitalisation World

Mark Yeeles, Schneider Electric’s Vice President, Secure Power Division, UK and Ireland, discusses the challenges and opportunities for the data centre industry as AI and data fuel a new industrial revolution, explaining that this not only means finding ways to decouple AI data centre growth from energy consumption but further emphasises the need for greater efficiency and sustainability within data centre design and buildouts. Mark says that, to achieve a greener future powered by AI, the industry not only accelerate the build-out of digital infrastructure and renewable energy developments, but harness the power of the ecosystem to ensure it is done so as sustainably as possible.

Reversible computing and near zero-energy silicon chips

Published in Energy Management Infrastructure + Asset Management Infrastructure + Hardware Power & Cooling

Mike Frank, Senior Scientist and Rodolfo Rosini, CEO, both at Vaire Computing, explain how reversible computing, as an alternative to classic computing, performs calculations without destroying information in the process (i.e., generating heat), reducing energy consumption and the need for cooling. Both are excited by the potential of the technology to meet AI’s ever-increasing computing and energy demands.

Realising the promise of PICs

Published in Infrastructure + Asset Management Infrastructure + Hardware

Chris Maloney, Managing Director of US Operations & Director of Business Development at VPIphotonics, discusses how photonic integrated circuits (PICs) have become an enabling technology in the rapid expansion of data centre connectivity due to their lower cost, lower power consumption, small footprint, and high-speed performance. One of the main challenges of using PICs for data applications is the design complexity associated with their integration into a fiber-optic communication system. Chris explains why the photonic design process is so critical, as well as offering advice to those seeking to develop PIC-based solutions for the dynamic data centre market.
