Impact of AI on Data Center Design
AI is projected to triple critical IT loads of hyperscalers, leading to an exponential increase in facility density and new cabinet densities of 50 to 100 kilowatts. This growth in AI will significantly impact data center design, forcing a shift towards hybrid setups and raising concerns about the economic viability of existing colocation facilities. The predictions by Synergy Research highlight a 3X increase in IT loads for hyperscalers in the next six years, emphasizing the need for a reevaluation of data center strategies to accommodate this rapid growth.
