Artificial intelligence is driving a fundamental shift in how data centers are designed, built, and operated. The rise of AI workloads, ranging from machine learning to generative AI, is reshaping infrastructure needs, pushing facilities toward higher power density, advanced cooling solutions, and modular, edge-based architectures. At the same time, AI is enabling new efficiencies through design and construction.
This webinar examines how these trends are redefining the modern data center. Participants will explore strategies for managing increased power and cooling demands, integrating consumption, grid availability, sustainable sourcing, new technologies (i.e., small modular reactors), and on-site generation. Leveraging AI to improve operational efficiency and resilience. Through current examples and forward-looking strategies, attendees will gain insights into how architects, engineers, and contractors can design data centers that meet today's demands while anticipating the rapid growth of AI technologies.
