A unified approach to high-density data center cooling to effectively respond to AI demands

How Vertiv combines coolant distribution unit, secondary fluid network and service in a comprehensive system solution for HPC and AI customers

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, data centers and computing systems are experiencing extraordinary pressure and workload requirements like never before. The rise of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and high-performance computing (HPC) has created a new paradigm in data center operations, where traditional cooling solutions often fall short. These cutting-edge applications generate exceptional heat loads that require innovative cooling strategies, and customers with high-density and AI-related requirements need solutions that go beyond conventional approaches.

In this scenario, a fragmented approach to cooling infrastructure simply cannot address the specific needs of these sophisticated applications effectively.

Vertiv’s holistic, system-centric approach

Vertiv has the capability to address these emerging challenges and the transformation occurring in the industry, in a comprehensive way. As opposed to vendors focused on just a portion of what is needed (a single product or technology or just agnostic services on other vendors' products), Vertiv offers a holistic, system-centric perspective that distinctly sets us apart from competitors and represents a fundamental shift in how cooling solutions are conceived, implemented, and maintained in modern data center environments.

At the core of Vertiv's philosophy is the understanding that products and services cannot exist in isolation. Instead, they must function as interconnected components within a cohesive ecosystem. In this approach, each element of the cooling infrastructure works in perfect harmony with others, creating a synchronized system that delivers unparalleled performance and reliability for high-density and AI applications.

The power of integration: CDU, SFN, and services

The Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) stands as the cornerstone of this integrated system, functioning as both the brain and the heart of the cooling infrastructure. It orchestrates the complex symphony of interactions between various components, working for efficient operation and optimal thermal management as  Vertiv™ CoolChip CDU family does.

However, Vertiv's expertise extends far beyond the CDU hardware itself, as its liquid cooling portfolio seamlessly integrates the CDU with the Secondary Fluid Network (SFN) and comprehensive service offerings, turning into a complete solution addressing all aspects of cooling infrastructure management.

Service beyond support: lifecycle and expertise

In this context, service goes beyond the mere traditional definition of post-installation support and maintenance. Instead, it becomes a fundamental part of the system architecture from the earliest stages of the project. In fact, Vertiv's service framework encompasses the entire lifecycle of the cooling infrastructure, beginning with meticulous planning, design and execution, through to thorough system approval upon installation and commissioning.

The service commitment then continues with regular maintenance of critical components, including fluid management and advanced digital services, all assisted by a condition-based approach. These services are built upon a foundation of well-defined procedures and scopes of work, executed by a global network of highly trained and knowledgeable customer engineers. This powerful combination of comprehensive offerings and established processes, implemented by expert service engineers, is at the basis of effective theory translation into practice and of the enhanced level of confidence in the reliability and performance of the cooling infrastructure Vertiv gives to customers.

Innovation, global reach, and customer confidence

Vertiv's expertise is further strengthened by our extensive experience as an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Our deep understanding of high-density applications, refined through close collaboration with key industry partners enables us to streamline processes and enhance the customer experience significantly, from initial consultation through to operational support.

The company's commitment to innovation extends beyond traditional product development. Vertiv continuously invests in research and development to stay ahead of emerging trends and requirements in the high-density computing space. This forward-thinking approach allows our solutions to meet current needs and to be also prepared for future challenges and technological advances.

Furthermore, Vertiv's global presence and extensive service network provide customers with consistent, high-quality support regardless of their location. This worldwide reach, combined with local expertise, enables us to respond quickly to customer needs while maintaining consistent standards of excellence across all regions.

Conclusion

Vertiv's winning approach to liquid cooling applications stems from a unique system-centric perspective, where products and services are inseparable components of a unified ecosystem. This integrated approach is distinctive in the industry and delivers tangible benefits to customers. By viewing products and services as integral parts of a comprehensive system, Vertiv creates tailored solutions that precisely meet the unique requirements of high-density and AI customers and provide them with the confidence that their critical infrastructure is in capable hands.
