Earlier this year, Supermicro announced multiple improvements to its Direct Liquid Cooling (DLC) portfolio. As processing and accelerator technology advances, the demand for superior power and cooling increases. For enterprise data centers embracing AI, the use of air cooling can quickly become unsustainable, necessitating the need to consider direct liquid cooling in the near term.

IT budgets are under assault from the ongoing explosion of AI initiatives combined with increased costs of virtualization. To prevent being left behind in AI, businesses are allocating significant investment to AI initiatives, but that investment is complicated by the recent increase in the license costs for hypervisor technology. As a result, organizations are increasingly considering alternative hypervisor technologies, and AI initiatives offer the opportunity to integrate those alternatives that can better support both virtual machines and container technologies. Recent research by Enterprise Strategy Group investigated how organizations are approaching new hypervisor adoption and what challenges they face along the way.

As hybrid cloud environments become the de facto standard for IT, businesses focus on modernizing their on-premises infrastructure to make it more “cloud-like” in experience. To accomplish this goal, IT vendors are increasingly offering on-premises infrastructure as-a-service that businesses can procure on a per-usage basis. And in some cases, the vendor takes on some of the maintenance tasks. For a majority of uses, these solutions provide benefits beyond traditional infrastructure.
