The Data Center Density Debate: Generational Change Brings Higher Densities (datacenterfrontier.com)

Posted by Soulskill on from the try-not-to-burn-out-the-grid dept.

1sockchuck writes: Over the past decade, there have been repeated predictions of the imminent arrival of higher rack power densities. Yet extreme densities have remained focused in high performance computing. Now data center providers are beginning to adapt their designs for higher densities. One of these companies is Colovore, which is among a cliuster of companies adopting chilled-water cooling doors for their cabinets (LinkedIn is another). They say the move to higher densities is driven in part by a generational change in IT teams, as younger engineers are less worried about high-density strategies using water in the data center. "A lot of them grew up with PC gaming and water cooling right in their living room," said a Colovore executive.

    Don't bother. The article is clickbait. The submitter has a history of frequently submitting articles from the same website. I suspect 1sockchuck is affiliated and not disclosing that fact.

      I don't see anything that looks like affiliate info in that link. And you can copy/paste the URL into a new browser tab so there's no referrer info, either.

      The submitter has submitted 24 stories over the course of the last year. Every single one of the stories links to atleast one of the same two domains, on the same subject... It is pretty obviously an affiliated/sock puppet account for an employee or marketing department.
