Specifically, the training module covers the challenge of the processors becoming ever more powerful while being required to operate in a more diverse range of locations.
“In this era of dense compute and data gravity, air-based cooling is no longer able to meet the requirements of high-density racks. Liquid cooling has arrived at a major inflection point; today, the discussion has moved on from why and where, to how and when,” said Pascal Holt, Director of Marketing at Iceotope.
“The new CPD materials focus upon the different approaches to liquid cooling, unpacking their pros and cons, and helping the architects of digital infrastructure optimise designs to achieve greater efficiency and reliability with higher heat reclamation potential.”
According to the Sheffield-based Iceotope, core to the CPD workshop is an explanation of the various liquid cooling methods, including:
- Direct-to-chip liquid cooling, single-phase
- Direct-to-chip liquid cooling, two-phase
- Tank immersion liquid cooling, single-phase
- Tank immersion liquid cooling, two-phase
- Precision immersion liquid cooling, single-phase
Also “attendees will learn the fundamentals of how the global data explosion and the resulting data gravity will impact the industry, together with discussion on other factors influencing change in the data centre market”.
Virtual
The material is initially being offered by Iceotope as a virtual workshop that has been fully accredited, with the learning value assessed to ensure that the content is compliant with global CPD requirements.
For those wishing to organise the training of larger groups, Iceotope says it can also run Covid-safe in-person events.
More information on the workshop, including the dates and availability, can be found on Iceotope website.
