POWERING THE FUTURE : HOW HYPERSCALE DATA CENTRES ARE
EVOLVING FOR AI , CLOUD AND SUSTAINABILITY
Hyperscale data centres are rapidly evolving to meet the soaring demands of AI , cloud computing and sustainability . With AI workloads driving a shift to high-density rack designs and liquid cooling solutions , operators are rethinking infrastructure to accommodate increased power and heat dissipation , while maintaining sustainability targets such as greener energy , efficient hardware and carbon reduction strategies . nnovations in modular
I design , advanced cabling and localised material sourcing are shaping the next generation of data centres . As hyperscalers scale up , flexibility , efficiency and sustainability remain at the forefront of their evolution . We hear the views of three experts on hyperscale data centres .
Rajesh Sennik , Head of Data Centre Advisory at KPMG UK :
AI is having a significant impact on data centres globally , as they look to support rapidly growing demand , through incremental growth in capacity and changes to design .
We expect to see data centres continue to grow to support cloud and enterprise workloads . Whilst there will be dips in demand and challenges around how much capacity is required long term to support learning , we continue to see sustained demand for AI projects . However , we expect there will be varying
