OUR TAKE Recently Aruba has implemented liquid cooling technology at their Ponte San Pietro data centre near Milan? That’s pretty impressive! With AI and HPC demanding more from hardware, traditional air cooling systems are struggling to keep up. I remember Google and Microsoft also tried their hands at liquid cooling in their data centres, and the results were outstanding. Aruba’s move is clearly in line with industry trends, giving customers who crave for ultimate performance a peace of mind. But let’s be real, liquid cooling, while powerful, also comes with its challenges – maintaining the water circulation, preventing leaks and scaling, and ensuring environmentally friendly disposal. In short, Aruba’s taking a bold and forward-thinking step here, and we’ll just have to wait and see how they master this high-tech game. –Miurio huang, BTW reporter Italy’s data centre operator, Aruba S.p.A (Aruba), has implemented liquid cooling technology at its data centre campus in Ponte San Pietro (BG), near Milan. This strategic move supports the increasingly dense racks within data centres and meets the advanced requirements of new generations of processors. The technology is particularly aimed at specialised hardware for public and private customers involved in artificial intelligence (AI) or high-performance computing (HPC) , which demand high processing intensity.
