Teny Zhang, chief technology officer (CTO) of SLiquid, said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In liquid cooling, China boasts the most mature supply chain,&#8221; Zhang said. &#8220;This allows us to leverage our proprietary technology and domestic industrial capabilities to effectively serve the global market.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>SLiquid&#8217;s new CDU product addresses the challenges of tropical environments and rising chip densities in AI computing, with each unit supporting up to 16 high-density AI cabinets at 120 kW, according to the company.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;By narrowing the temperature approach between cooling circuits to below 3 degrees Celsius, we help customers reduce power consumption by at least 20 percent,&#8221; Zhang said.<\/p>\n<p>As AI applications continue driving demand for efficient computing infrastructure across Southeast Asia&#8217;s growing digital economies, specialized CDU providers like SLiquid are positioning themselves at the forefront of the region&#8217;s data center transformation, according to Zhang.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With chip power density surging in recent years, some suppliers have even adopted liquid cooling solutions at the chip level,&#8221; Zhang said. &#8220;This has inevitably led to the transition toward liquid-cooled data centers, a shift driven fundamentally by market demand.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to market consultancy Mordor Intelligence, the global data center liquid cooling market will reach $5.52 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $15.75 billion by 2030, a 23.31 percent CAGR.<\/p>\n<p>According to Zhang, SLiquid also seeks local cooperation in its expansion strategy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are establishing comprehensive collaborations with a number of local partners specializing in delivery, services, engineering, and design capabilities,&#8221; Zhang said. &#8220;This enables us to better support our clients throughout the entire project lifecycle \u2014 from initial planning and design to final delivery and ongoing support \u2014 providing integrated, end-to-end solutions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Building a local team is crucial,&#8221; the executive emphasized. &#8220;We must use localized employees and teams to communicate effectively with customers.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[Photo provided to chinadaily.com.cn] As data infrastructure emerges as a new frontier for regional collaboration, data center solution&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":92462,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[241,61,60,80],"class_list":["post-92461","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-computing","tag-computing","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92461","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=92461"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92461\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/92462"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92461"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=92461"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=92461"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
