Exciting Developments from Open Compute Summit | The Gestalt IT Rundown: October 23, 2024

Tech Field Day News Rundown

At Open Compute Summit this past week, key trends shaping the future of computing and infrastructure were discussed. One major concern is the global data center energy consumption, which is projected to triple by 2030, highlighting the urgent need for more efficient energy solutions. As technology advances, the shift from a 3nm process to a 2nm process is proving costly, with design costs estimated to reach a staggering $725 million, according to ARM. In response to both power demands and design challenges, liquid cooling is gaining momentum, emerging as a vital technology to improve efficiency and manage the increasing heat output from advanced computing systems.
