"The problem is that the driving force behind the #datacenter boom isn't the #AI researchers, it is the #realestate people."

"ChatGPT came out in 2022, and the Chinese government declared AI infrastructure a national priority. Over 500 new data centres were announced in 2023 and 2024. Private investors went all-in.

Demand for the #datacentres turns out not to be there. Around 80% are not actually in use. [MIT Technology Review]"

Recent news that Amazon has pulled back on datacenter leasing deals has concerned some AI investors - especially on the backs of a similar Microsoft pause. But the company says it's nothing more than "routine capacity management." Read more at @theregister. #Amazon #Microsoft #AI #AWS #Datacenter #Tech #Technology flip.it/YBhYZ0

#Frack to the future? #Geothermal energy pitched as #datacenter savior
An independent research body claims that geothermal power generation could provide an answer to the growing energy requirements of #datacenters.
But there's a catch. It focuses on techniques that employ hydraulic fracturing, or #fracking, to avoid being restricted to areas with naturally available geothermal energy, and depends on operators being prepared to pay a "green premium."

Karsten decidiu otimizar essa abordagem. "Em vez de sempre esperar por um período fixo de tempo, esperamos dinamicamente com base no que sabemos que está acontecendo na aplicação", diz ele. Ele desenvolveu uma técnica para que a consulta de demandas intensas ocorra durante períodos de alto tráfego de rede, com a suspensão de solicitações de interrupção desnecessárias. Quando o tráfego de rede diminui, a entrega baseada em interrupções é retomada. "Isso torna o mecanismo resultante muito mais eficiente e flexível", acrescenta.

#Laser cooling breakthrough could make data centers much greener

> Lasers are great for heating things up, whether you need to do it quickly, hit a precise target, or do it from a distance. Under specific conditions, lasers can also cool things down, and that might be JUST what we need to tackle way-too-toasty data centers.

#AMD splits #ROCm toolkit into two parts – ROCm #AMDGPU drivers get their own branch under Instinct #datacenter #GPU moniker
The new #datacenter Instinct driver is a renamed version of the #Linux AMDGPU driver packages that are already distributed and documented with ROCm. Previously, everything related to ROCm (including the amdgpu driver) existed as part of the ROCm software stack.

R$ 2.3 bilhões em nuvem do TST por 5 anos daria pra construir 24 datacenters (um pra cada tribunal) de R$ 50 milhões cada, com garantia de 10 anos e ainda sobra R$ 1 bilhão pro custeio (geração de expertise nacional).

O SERPRO que poderia ser parte da nossa "Petrobrás dos Datacenters", virou um atravessador barriga de aluguel da AWS, GCP, Azure, HUawei e Oracle.
