Fujitsu is collaborating with Supermicro to build liquid-cooled servers by 2027, according to a report by The Register. These liquid cooler servers will be based on Fujitsu's upcoming ARM-based Monaka processor, which is slated to be released in the same timeframe.
The combination of liquid cooling and Fujitsu's energy-efficient Monaka chips is aimed at combating sky-high demand for data center capacity, which has become greater than what can be supplied thanks to various factors, including AI. One of the biggest obstacles preventing accelerated data center capacity development the ability to meet the growing power consumption of modern datacenter chips. By combining the efficiency of the ARM architecture with liquid cooling, Fujitsu and Supermicro hope to offer a market-leading server portfolio for their customers.
