Liquid cooling and the future of data centre efficiency

In this episode we are diving into the world of liquid cooling. It’s become a topic of much discussion over the course of the last year, and is being hailed as an essential part of future data centre and HPC architecture.

But, what makes liquid cooling so essential, and why are we reaching the limits of air cooling technology? Joining us to discuss is Benjamin Kufahl, Senior Liquid Cooling Expert in HPC & AI at Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.
