The Panel
Building for AI and Advanced Tech Infrastructure: Understanding Key Differences in Scale, Engineering, and Design
AI workloads are pushing infrastructure design into uncharted territory, such as driving up power densities, altering thermal strategies, and redefining interconnect requirements. Traditional data center blueprints are being replaced by architectures purpose-built for GPUs, TPUs, and real-time AI inference. As innovation accelerates and cooling limits are tested, engineering for scale is becoming a race against physics and economics. What design principles will shape the AI-native data centers of the future?
Align's Vice President of Sales and Sourcing, Rodney Willis, joins a panel of experts to discuss factors affecting AI deployments, including:
- Operationalizing new equipment
- Shifting electrical and redundancy norms
- The importance of rapid deployment
- and more!
