The AI Heat Wave Is Coming
Adoption of accelerated IT and high-performance computing (HPC) architectures is growing at a fast pace to meet the demands of AI workloads.
Power consumption and heat generation from AI chips are orders of magnitude higher than conventional IT equipment. Power and cooling infrastructure designs are being transformed as traditional cooling technologies might not measure up to the needs of AI workloads.
Don’t let your infrastructure slow down your AI deployments or throttle your AI workloads. Vertiv can help you rethink your critical infrastructure in the age of AI.
Vertiv Solutions Are AI-ready
Vertiv offers cutting-edge solutions engineered with industry leaders in the AI industry to power and cool even the highest density workloads in most challenging deployments.
Choose Your Path to High-Density
Your journey to high-density can be a smooth ride. No matter its starting point or final destination.
Direct-to-Chip
Cold plates sit atop the heat-generating components (usually chips such as CPUs and GPUs) to draw off heat. Fluid flows through manifolds and in pipes through IT equipment, exchanging heat with cold plates to draw off heat without touching the chips. Air cooling is still required to extract heat from components that do not have a cold plate.
Rear Door Heat Exchanger
Passive or active heat exchangers replace the rear door of the IT rack. Fluid goes through heat exchanging coils in the back of the rack absorbing heat in the air carried by the fans of IT equipment (hence why often called "air-to-liquid"). These are often used in combination with direct-to-chip as a strategy to keep room neutrality, or a transitional design enabling an easy conversion into direct-to-chip in the future.
Immersion Cooling
Servers and other IT equipment are submerged in a tank filled with thermally conductive but dielectric (electric non-conductive) fluid. There is no need of air cooling as equipment is the tank. This approach maximizes the thermal transfer properties of liquid and is often the most energy-efficient form of liquid cooling on the market.
Unleashing the Power for Accelerated IT
Vertiv leadership in mission-critical power infrastructure from grid to chip enables us to fully address key customer challenges.
Our modular compact-footprint offer can scale up to power needs of the most demanding AI workloads. We have the power solutions that can keep critical inferencing loads running in case of outages. And our advanced battery-energy storage systems (BESS) can help data centers build the micro-grid to reduce dependency of utility providers.
From switchgears to rack power distribution units (PDUs), our unmatched portfolio in power management encompasses solutions to keep your workloads up even when the grid is down.
Make Your Transition to AI-ready Hassle-free
Turnkey service including site assessment, modelling and solution design by Vertiv™ power and thermal experts to easily upgrade your existing infrastructure to AI-ready.
Thorough site visits carried out by our specialist team of engineers map site and availability of infrastructure to support defining optimal layout and system design. Integration drawings and computational fluid dynamic (CFD) digital twin modelling guarantee any operator’s piece of mind for later site expansion or maintenance.
