Perhaps the most pressing infrastructure challenge at the edge is thermal management. The rise of AI and other high-performance computing (HPC) applications is driving a dramatic increase in server and rack power densities. The industry average for a data center rack is rapidly moving from 10 kW towards 20 kW, with high-density AI deployments pushing well beyond 40 kW and even approaching 100 kW per rack. This level of heat generation is pushing traditional air-cooling methods to their absolute limits.

Software-Defined Power (SDP) is a transformative technology that is particularly well-suited to the dynamic and automated nature of edge computing. Defined by the Uptime Institute as a layer of abstraction that makes it easier to continuously match power resources with changing data center needs, SDP moves power management from a static, hardware-based function to a dynamic, software-controlled one.
