From October 7-9, Lee Kirby will be attending Yotta 2024, where over 2,500 industry leaders will gather to explore the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and tackle the growing challenges in digital infrastructure. As AI and machine learning (ML) reshape industries, this event is the first of its kind completely focused on the demands of AI-driven facilities and their impact on global infrastructure at scale.
Want to talk Operational Readiness for AI facilities?
Lee Kirby, the co-founder of Salute and a recognized authority on supporting the changing face and pace of data center models, will be attending and is looking forward to participating in discussions around operational readiness for AI and ML workloads in hyperscale and colocation environments.
As AI continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible, the demands on data centers are evolving rapidly. High-density compute environments, increasing energy use, shortage of power supply and complex cooling needs are all part of the industry’s challenges. With decades of experience, Lee Kirby’s experience in optimizing existing infrastructure is invaluable for anyone looking to stay ahead in this fast-changing landscape. Since setting up Salute, Lee’s approach has always been about finding the best solution for data center providers and their own unique DC models.
“Every data center provider has their own unique challenges but are all battling for the same technology and commercial goals.” expresses Lee Kirby
“While it is important not to downplay the challenges we are faced by hosting advanced technologies such as AI and the complete infrastructure shift within the facilities to support these new environments, as an industry we have always adapted by working with the best in class teams and vendors. I am incredibly excited about the future of our industry.”
Lee, alongside the team at Salute, is supporting the globe’s data center providers in adapting to these challenges through Operational Readiness programs and practical solutions. Working with hyperscalers and colocation providers, the Salute team are getting their clients ready for this transition whether they are at the design, build, operate or refresh stage of their facilities’ lifecycle.
“It’s not just about upgrades; it’s about future-proofing facilities to handle the power and heat generated by AI workloads and to do this, our clients need Subject Matter Experts across the entire lifecycle of a data center.” summarises Kirby
