#152 Центровете за данни 2023: Периферни изчисления и зелена енергия

In the first of a three-part Tech Barometer podcast series, go inside the mind of a data center architect as he helps lead Nutanix IT into a sustainable hybrid multicloud future. “We’re constantly and consistently using electricity, so the power and cooling have to be always available, every second,” said Harmail Singh Chatha, director of Global Data Center Operations for Nutanix. Server racks, networking cables, cooling systems and power sources all interconnect in a highly strategic and systematic way. Chatha explains how hyper-dense data centers power a software-defined world of applications and data, which dramatically grow and evolve over time. The infrastructure and services he pulls together must be reliable, secure and easily scalable while limiting the impact on Mother Earth.

Hybrid Multicloud

Architecting Sustainable Data Centers

Explore the joys and challenges of leading data center operations with a sustainability mindset. In part two of a three-part podcast series, Harmail Singh Chatha explains what it’s like being director of Global Data Center Operations at Nutanix as the company embraces IT sustainability best practices. “The mindset is changing,” he said. “Everything is becoming more efficient. Compute is becoming more efficient. Data center providers are becoming more efficient. Everything is going to a software-defined network. The conversation started 10 years ago, but it’s finally starting to come to fruition where networking is deployed as code servers are provisioned, as code instances are spun up as code. That’s the mindset that everybody has to go into as they’re going into this industry.”

Data Center Director with Sustainability Mindset

If cloud computing is the biggest infrastructure ever built by human hands, then data centers are the engines and building blocks that make it run. Building data centers is increasingly challenging as space, power, scalability and sustainability intertwine into priority number one. No one knows this better than Harmail Singh Chatha, senior director of hybrid cloud operations and ESG at Nutanix. In this third of a three-part podcast series, Chatha talks about building one of his company’s modern data centers, which powers the company’s critical aspects of the business. Adding to his list of challenges was timing: during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Despite the economic downturn coming in 2024 with our forecast of a mild recession, there are still areas of opportunity for businesses next year. Tune in to the latest episode of TrendsTalk to learn about some of the bright spots to consider for 2024!

Areas of Opportunity with Taylor St. Germain

Your Next Email Could Heat a Swimming Pool. That story and more on H2O Radio’s weekly news report about water.

Headlines:

Was global warming responsible for last week’s freezing temperatures?

Bottom trawling fishing boats are releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Perhaps leopards can’t change their spots, but butterflies can when it gets too hot.

How swimming pools are being heated with your data.

This Week in Water for January 21, 2024

Google, Facebook, Instagram, and the rest of the internet, are housed on servers. These servers are mostly stored in data centers located in small, desert communities. Data centers use water to cool their servers. As the climate changes and droughts become more prevalent, legal issues arise as to who gets primary access to water sources.

BTLJ Podcast host, Meg O'Neill, speaks with lawyer John DeVoe of Water Watch, and then journalist Mike Rogoway of the Oregonian.

The Cloud is Material and Impacts the Environment / Steven Gonzalez Monserrate

Technology can be enormously disruptive to commercial real estate. Remote work is responsible for the global devaluation of office properties. Artificial intelligence (AI) is already changing the way we live and work. 

So what will be the effect of AI on institutional investment strategies?

https://www.afire.org/podcast/202402cast/

To get at some answers, AFIRE CEO Gunnar Branson talked to one of his favorite futurist investors, Jeffrey Kanne, president and CEO of National Real Estate Advisors, an AFIRE member firm and investment manager specializing in a build-to-core strategy, developing and managing large-scale, urban commercial and multifamily projects for its institutional client accounts. 

“The advent of AI as a technological tool is going to greatly increase the rate of change,” Kanne tells Branson. “I’m very nervous about where you can place money and think it’s safe.” 

The best opportunity for investment, Kanne believes, is in data centers that provide consistent power and temperature-controlled environments for the Googles, OpenAIs and Microsofts of the world. 

With that in mind, Kanne and Branson discuss how investors can enter the data center market. 

“It’s not rocket science,” Kanne says, while outlining potential pitfalls and barriers to entry for new operators. “It’s incumbent on all of us as investors to think about what the world will be like in five years, ten years, fifteen years,” Kanne says. “When I look ahead, data centers are a good place to focus on.”
