AI Servers Push Data Centers to Redesign for Extreme Power Loads - 📅 - For more than two decades, x86 pizza box servers have quietly powered the digital world. Compact, stackable, and general-purpose, they became the bedrock of modern enterprise and cloud computing. These servers - and the CPUs that drive them - have grown steadily stronger over the years, raising average rack power density from around 3 kilowatts (kW) in the late 1990s to roughly 10 kW today.
In traditional data centers, this increase was manageable. Facilities were typically built with 30-year life cycles in mind, allowing gradual adaptation over successive server refreshes. When energy demand climbed, engineers simply added more white space for expansion. That incremental model, however, [...]
