Nvidia's new prefabricated DSX POD promises to cut AI data center build times from months to weeks, but a Greenpeace protest at the Berlin unveiling highlighted growing concern over the industry's environmental impact.
Read the storyA proposed metric called power compute effectiveness (PCE) measures how much provisioned power is actually available for compute versus support systems, giving operators a new tool to free up capacity during retrofits without waiting on new grid power.
As grid constraints slow data center expansion, some hyperscalers are exploring a reversal of the behind-the-meter model: building generation capacity that feeds the grid itself rather than serving only their own campuses.
Lumentum, Astera Labs, and Corning demoed an optical version of PCIe at the 2026 OCP Global Summit, showing how light over fiber could loosen copper's reach limits in dense AI racks.
A three day industry event in Atlanta will bring together data center owners, hyperscalers, and contractors to tackle construction and power bottlenecks facing the AI infrastructure boom.
Rank Math has confirmed that certain copies of its SEO PRO plugin version 3.0.123 were compromised with malware during a narrow update window in mid October 2026.
As AI rack power climbs past 100 kW and toward the megawatt range, engineers are turning to real-time motor control, precision flow sensing, and smarter power management to keep liquid cooling reliable and efficient.
Cloudflare's Data team details five years of pipeline engineering, from schema redesign to smarter compression and sampling, that let it absorb exponential traffic growth without a matching rise in hardware.
Before a facility ever powers on, construction sites face theft, sabotage, and supply chain tampering risks that can undermine security long after operations begin.
A TRG DataCenters study of 24 states finds Virginia best positioned for AI data center growth thanks to lower-carbon power, while smaller markets like South Carolina show that scale isn't everything.
