  • How six AI attributes are rewriting the rules of data center design
    Feb 23 2026

    Why is AI such a disruptive force for data center design compared to traditional workloads? In this episode of Data Center Dialogues, Alison Matte is joined by Victor Avelar, Senior Research Analyst at Schneider Electric, to unpack how six AI attributes are changing data center design: from power density to cooling and sustainability.

    Follow the discussion:

    • Why AI changes the game for power, cooling, and infrastructure planning
    • The six attributes shaping AI-ready data center design
    • Cooling strategies for higher heat density (and what’s changing in design)
    • How operators balance performance with sustainability goals
    • How to future-proof infrastructure as AI workloads evolve

    Is AI reshaping everything from rack design to energy strategy? If this sparked a new perspective, pass it along.
