Immersion Datacenter Cooling: Enhanced Equipment Performance + Space Optimization

Written by

Immersion cooling offers a powerful solution for hosting high-value services such as AI and HPC workloads more cost-effectively in your datacenter. This approach leverages the superior cooling capabilities of immersion systems, guaranteeing optimal temperatures for such demanding workloads. Consequently, your equipment performs at its best, ensuring reliable operations.

Essentially, this strategy creates the perfect environment for resource-heavy tasks, enabling you to offer premium services and seize bigger market opportunities. It's an effective method to fuel your business potential.

Due to increased thermal operating temperatures, chips can function at higher temperatures for extended periods. This reduces throttling, and therefore, maintains system performance.

The utilization of a chip (GPU or CPU) directly corresponds with power needs to support higher frequencies. When a chip operates near its peak frequencies, it requires maximum power, thereby producing the most heat. Immersion cooling can efficiently manage this heat, preventing the chip from throttling, and thus maintaining optimal performance.

Optimizing Space with Immersion Cooling

One of the challenges often faced by data centers is restricted floor space. But immersion cooling helps tackle this issue by eliminating the necessity for bulky air conditioning units and intricate air circulation systems. The result is increased usable space in your datacenter, enabling you to repurpose it for revenue-generating activities.

Whether you decide to house more servers or dedicate areas for AI and HPC workloads, immersion cooling provides you with the flexibility to maximize space utilization and profitability.

Greenfield would be best, right?

Designing a greenfield datacenter based on immersion cooling can offer significant benefits, including a significant reduction in physical footprint and operational costs.

But in the short term...
