A unique liquid cooled server makes AI applications more efficient, high performance and sustainable across diverse environments.
The company of precision liquid cooling (PLC), ‘Iceotope’ launched a liquid cooled server, the ‘KUL AI’, marking a significant milestone in AI infrastructure. It incorporates the PLC technology which validates the unparalleled thermal management and efficiency in computing-intensive environments.
The server, built on an 8GPU Gigabyte G293 platform powered by Intel Xeon processors, is designed to tackle the escalating data demands of artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC). By integrating PLC technology, It sustains optimal GPU performance even during rigorous workloads. The technology eliminates hotspots, protects components, and significantly reduces failure rates, achieving remarkable energy efficiency.
Targeted towards a wide array of industries, it addresses the needs of artificial intelligence research labs, high-performance computing centres, cloud service providers, and media production studios. Its high scalability and compact design make it suitable for sectors requiring dense GPU performance, such as quantitative trading and visual effects studios. The server’s adaptability also ensures seamless operation in non-traditional IT environments like edge installations.
The company emphasises that the server reduces energy consumption by 40% and water usage by 96%. Its compact design supports four times the computational density compared to traditional systems, making it ideal for industries like AI research and development. Moreover, the server meets sustainability goals without compromising computational power.
Nathan Blom, co-chief executing officer, Iceotope, highlighted the innovation’s impact, stating, “The unprecedented volume of data being generated by new technologies demands a state-of-the-art solution which not only guarantees server performance but delivers on all vectors of efficiency and sustainability.”
Designed for adaptability, the server operates efficiently in data centres and challenging environments such as edge installations. Its sealed construction protects against humidity and airborne contaminants, ensuring reliability even in extreme conditions. With near-silent operation, it suits workplaces where noise levels are critical.
The precision liquid cooling of KUL AI catalyses sustainable AI systems capable of enhancing industries while making moves on energy and environmental concerns.
