In this session, Curtis will address the challenges of traditional CRAC/CRAH systems in high-density AI workloads. He will share engineering insights, real-world examples, and forward-thinking approaches to transition from outdated cooling systems to next-generation solutions. 1. Identifying Legacy Risks – Hidden costs and performance risks of outdated cooling strategies. 2. Engineering Insights – Real-world examples from over two decades of experience in data center infrastructure. 3. Next-Gen Cooling Solutions – Approaches for moving from legacy systems to AI-ready cooling. 4. Bridging the Gap – Practical strategies for modernising infrastructure to meet AI demands.
