That means our product has to work independently of us – it has to achieve a level of external usability and stability..
While density is increasing exponentially, cooling technology is not.You could achieve 10x as much density in a given data hall footprint, but the external mechanical and electrical plant will be 10x bigger.
This could present an opportunity for manufacturers or suppliers to develop a new suite of products, especially given land cost and pressures.We know this is happening in the US right now, where a major manufacturer is developing new products for a specific DC owner..Recent news on the release of open-source DeepSeek and its impact on the share price of Nvidia suggests that there may be some striation in the market..
Some AI models, though not in the leading peloton, are close behind and more cost-effective.These applications may place lower demands on processing and cooling and hold a lower facility price point.. Everyone in the room agreed that standing still is not an option..
Some believe that we’re reaching the edges of technological development in cooling, certainly from current supply chains.
There are other cooling technologies (e.g.Considering how much impact planning has on our lives, it is not as present or discoverable as many other aspects of contemporary living.
The laminated notices on lamp posts which inform the public of local planning applications can easily be missed or ignored, and are often hard to understand.We do not have the levels of informed, accessible, public engagement with planning that would benefit the process and the built environment.
Digitisation would open up new ways to engage the wider public at all stages of the planning process..The increasing digitisation of relevant information and data, and our ability to import that data into the planning process in meaningful ways will further help engagement.
