I’ll lead with the answer: POWER, that’s what’s behind it.
The transformative effects of AI and Quantum Computing are everywhere. In the not-too-distant past, telling someone you were using “ChatGPT” would have made as much sense as saying you were using CayennePileDriverWTF. But it is the world in which we live, and as it grows (metastases) it is going to increasingly tax the power grid.
What to do about it, you might ask? Well, let’s run that through ChatGPT, shall we? No, we won’t be doing that. En-Net’s longtime partner Eaton is working with NVIDIA to design, redesign, and innovate the way data centers distribute the power that advanced computing needs. If you’ve been a friend or customer (or both!) of En-Net, you will know we have been partnering with Eaton on UPS/back-up power for a couple of decades. But Eaton has a whole other division that has for decades designed and built power stations. They are taking that experience and tailoring it to the data center world. If you are interested in engaging in the more technical explanation about Eaton’s approach, and how they are leveraging NVIDIA to create dynamic systems that can sustain AI power loads please feel free to reach out to En-Net or your Dedicated Account Manager.
Fun fact: Worldwide data center capex is projected to surpass $1 trillion by 2029. 1 trillion dollars! In the not-too-distant past, saying “1 trillion” would have made as much sense as saying “a Ka jillion.” But it is the world in which we live.
