The rapid adoption of AI, HPC and accelerated computing is driving higher rack densities, increased power demand and more complex thermal requirements, challenging traditional data centre design and build models.

 

This session provides a technical, high-level view of how prefabricated infrastructure solutions can support these next-generation workloads while improving speed, predictability and scalability.

 

The discussion will cover key concepts behind prefabricated power and cooling systems, including modular power blocks, integrated electrical and mechanical infrastructure, and cooling approaches suited to high-density environments.

 

Rather than focusing on detailed engineering calculations, the session highlights design principles, deployment models and integration considerations that influence performance, resilience and future expansion, while providing a practical understanding of where prefabrication fits within modern data centre architectures and how it reduces on-site complexity and risk.
