In high-performance computing (HPC), three critical infrastructure technologies— AI factories, liquid cooling, and modular datacenters—are reshaping how organizations design and scale their IT systems. As digital transformation accelerates, AI takes a central role in business strategy, and high-density processing becomes the norm, these technologies have emerged as essential pre-requisites and are forming the new “InfraTech” […]
Factories worldwide are continuing to adopt more robots, according to the International Federation of Robotics, or IFR. The new global average robot density reached a record 162 units per 10,000 employees in 2023 — more than double the 74 unit average measured only seven years ago. The post In just seven years, the global robot […]
[Last Week], news of DeepSeek GPT swept through the media. The market reacted, and many hardware companies (e.g., Nvidia, ASML, Broadcom, Marvell) saw a drop in their market value. Presumably, the demand for truckloads of GPUs will be reduced because DeepSeek has delivered a foundation model that rivals the “big kids” at 1/50 the cost. […]
