DATA CENTRE PREDICTIONS
HUAWEI PUSHES
THE ENVELOPE
OF AI IN THE
DATA CENTRE
As organisations accelerate
their Digital Transformation
strategies, a revamp of
existing data centres is
often required in order to
support power-hungry
private cloud and hybrid
cloud deployments. Bob He,
President of Data Centre
Facility, Huawei, tells us how
the company is using AI to
maximise data centre value
for customers, as well as in its
own facilities.
There are many use cases for
AI in the data centre, including
improved safety and reliability,
greater efficiency and reduced energy
consumption. By collecting information
from infrastructure, AI can predict faults
and respond in milliseconds.
As organisations around the world turn
to Digital Transformation and innovation
to pull ahead of the competition, many
are upgrading and modernising their
existing IT infrastructure to deliver the
new, fluid capabilities needed to
support today’s hyper-competitive
business environments.
This invariably includes a re-evaluation
of existing data centres, the specialised
facilities built to support the smooth
functioning of IT systems.
