the building is the new server
scott weiss, a partner at andreessen horowitz, writes in all things digital that, "the personal computer is dead. as quickly as we moved from the desktop to the laptop, we are moving to the tablet — never to return. with the death of the pc, an entire ecosystem dies with it. the chipset is arm-based, rather than intel. the operating system is all ios and android, rather than windows. the applications are hosted cloud apps like box, google apps and evernote rather than sharepoint, office and outlook." (you can read his full write up here).
scott's statement is provocative and meant to draw you in to the debate but for thermal and mechanical engineers the debate has big implications. can we scale cooling reliably, cost effectively and environmentally friendly? do our experience and smarts scale to meet the post-pc challenge of cloud computing? one group that is thinking beyond heat sinks and airflow (as important as those are) to address cooling data centers (cooling the cloud if you will) is the university of maryland. one team in particular is considering many aspects of data center capacity, throughput and data type in their considering of thermal management. we'd invite our readers to take a look at their work and let us know. as an engineer are you scaling your thinking about the new server? please click to read more at, "university of maryland, thermal and energy management in datacenters"
