Cooling at the Edge with DUG
Modern AI servers generate a lot of heat, but the industry is ready with revolutionary technologies like immersion cooling. This episode of Utilizing Tech features Micah Jordan from DUG, discussing specialized server solutions with Jeniece Wnorowski of Solidigm and Stephen Foskett. Although it sounds exotic, companies like DUG have been using immersion cooling for decades. Once they proved the value of the technology in their own datacenter, DUG began delivering immersion cooled containers wherever they are needed, especially at the edge. This uniform and efficient cooling allows servers to work harder while also extending their lifespan and reducing the risk of component failure. DUG’s containerized AI racks are being deployed around the world closer to users, lowering the latency and enabling rapid response to demands. DUG is working with partners like Hypertec to build, certify, and support immersion cooling for end customers, achieving higher density and lower energy consumption.

What Another Trump Presidency Means for Enterprise Tech | The Gestalt IT Rundown: November 6, 2024
Another Trump presidency could bring significant implications for enterprise tech, particularly through a focus on deregulation, increased M&A, and expanded Big Tech investments. this also extends to advancements in military technology, Israel’s influence on cybersecurity, the impact of initiatives like StarLink and rural broadband on connectivity, nuclear energy, AI, the CHIPS Act, and the expanding space industry. Altogether, these insights suggest that a pro-deregulation agenda, aiming to remove ten regulations for each new one introduced, could profoundly shape the future of enterprise technology. This and more on the Gestalt IT Rundown.

Qiskit and IBM’s New Quantum Innovations | The Gestalt IT Rundown: September 25, 2024
We’re happy to have Dr. Bob Sutor joining us this week on the Rundown, since he covers quantum and advanced computing for The Futurum Group. IBM made two important announcements in the quantum space this week. The first announcement was Qiskit, a quantum SDK that runs on Python for quantum computers. This promises to bring quantum compute to a more mainstream audience and converting the underlying code to Rust. This solution is much faster than competing solutions from Google, Amazon, and Quantinuuum. IBM is also putting together an app store for quantum applications and runtime functions, including from third-party developers. This matches the moves that we have seen in areas like cloud and AI, and serves to push IBM as the leader in quantum computing. This and more on The Rundown.

At 1:30 PM, we welcome TSecond, a company specializing in large data capture, data transport, and AI in unforgiving environments. The TSecond BRYCK is a high-performance, petabyte-scale mobile data solution that now enables AI right at the edge.
Thursday begins with Ignite presentations by the Edge Field Day delegates, which is always a highlight of our events. We welcome ZEDEDA back to Edge Field Day at 10:30 AM Pacific for a session focused on edge orchestration and management. They’ll dive into Kubernetes, edge AI, and more. At 1:30 PM, we’ll learn about OnLogic, the leading manufacturer of industrial small-form-factor computers for edge environments. Their presentation will take us through various environments that require unique compute solutions.
You can also catch the Edge Field Day delegates on our Tech Field Day podcast, including two special episodes recorded next week. Check out our appearances on Techstrong Gang and the Gestalt IT Rundown, and tune in for behind-the-scenes shorts, tech talks, and extras recorded in Silicon Valley.
