Exploring Data Center Innovations
WB Engineers+Consultants recently took center stage at a prominent industry event, reinforcing their commitment to the future of data centers. They participated as a sponsor and speaker at the 7x24 Exchange Carolinas Chapter Winter Meeting, an inspiring gathering of industry leaders dedicated to the ever-evolving landscape of data center design, sustainability, and the integration of artificial intelligence.
Insights from the 7x24 Exchange
This annual conference provided a valuable platform for thought leaders in the data center sector to share insights and collaborate on innovative solutions to industry challenges. A significant theme of this year’s discussions was the impact of rapid technological advancements on data center design and functionality.
Focus on Sustainability
One of the key highlights of the event was the emphasis on sustainable practices within the realm of data centers. Drew Zahradka, WB’s Team Leader, remarked on the pressing need to prioritize sustainability to ensure data centers can meet both current and future demands while minimizing their environmental footprint.
Panel Discussions and Expertise
WB’s Principal and Managing Director of the Washington, DC office, Bart Stewart, actively participated in a key panel titled "Design and Construction Trends." The focus of this dialogue was on "Energy Efficiency and Water Consumption," where Stewart highlighted the critical balance data centers must strike between energy and water resources. As AI workloads continue to grow, the challenge of managing power density and cooling requirements becomes increasingly important.
Exploring Cooling Technologies
The presentation delved into the options available for cooling technologies, comparing evaporative cooling, liquid cooling, and traditional air-based systems. Stewart emphasized that developing a sustainable, high-performing infrastructure is essential, especially in light of regulatory requirements and environmental considerations impacting data center operations.
AI and Liquid Cooling Solutions
Adding depth to the discussions, Stewart also engaged in a conversation about "The Nexus of Artificial Intelligence and Liquid Cooling.” This segment addressed the shift away from traditional CPU-based IT systems and the new challenges posed by innovative data center power models.
Raising Awareness and Engagement
WB Engineers+Consultants continually seeks opportunities at industry conferences like the 7x24 Exchange to illuminate key trends and address often overlooked aspects of data center operations. A recent poll indicated that only half of Americans could accurately define a data center, highlighting a significant knowledge gap. WB is dedicated to bridging this gap by engaging in discussions that raise awareness of the vital role the industry plays in modern life.
Addressing Real-World Issues
As Managing Principal Jimmy Sneed pointed out, the mission of the team is to tackle real-world issues through engineering solutions. By staying informed on industry trends and preparing businesses for upcoming challenges, WB Engineers+Consultants aims to make a meaningful impact in the data center sector.
