1 00:00:00,180 --> 00:00:02,280 - Chipboard modernization is driving the need 2 00:00:02,280 --> 00:00:04,500 for increasingly advanced servers, 3 00:00:04,500 --> 00:00:06,990 and those servers are generating tremendous amounts of heat. 4 00:00:06,990 --> 00:00:10,860 Leonardo DRS IcePiercer immersion cooling unit 5 00:00:10,860 --> 00:00:14,542 will ensure that your data center needs are future proof. 6 00:00:14,542 --> 00:00:17,375 (inspiring music) 7 00:00:29,391 --> 00:00:31,500 Both the commercial and the defense sectors 8 00:00:31,500 --> 00:00:33,990 are demanding increasingly advanced servers 9 00:00:33,990 --> 00:00:35,940 and more sophisticated computers 10 00:00:35,940 --> 00:00:39,510 that's being driven by things like artificial intelligence, 11 00:00:39,510 --> 00:00:41,880 unmanned systems, machine learning, 12 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,160 sensor proliferation, and data processing. 13 00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:47,400 Those increasingly advanced servers are also requiring 14 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:51,180 increasingly advanced processors, GPUs and CPU. 15 00:00:51,180 --> 00:00:54,420 The problem is those advanced GPUs 16 00:00:54,420 --> 00:00:56,280 are throwing off tremendous amounts of heat, 17 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,100 often much more than traditional air cooling can manage, 18 00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:02,250 which results in overheating, throttling down, 19 00:01:02,250 --> 00:01:05,070 just a general inability to perform the service 20 00:01:05,070 --> 00:01:06,900 that they're being asked to provide. 21 00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:08,850 The commercial marketplace has solved this 22 00:01:08,850 --> 00:01:11,373 with liquid immersion cooling. 23 00:01:15,930 --> 00:01:18,900 As you know, air is traditionally used to cool servers, 24 00:01:18,900 --> 00:01:21,180 unfortunately air is not a very effective 25 00:01:21,180 --> 00:01:22,590 or efficient way of removing heat. 26 00:01:22,590 --> 00:01:25,709 In fact, liquid is about a thousand times more effective 27 00:01:25,709 --> 00:01:29,400 than air at removing heat from servers. 28 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:34,320 Immersion cooling, immerses or submerges the entire server 29 00:01:34,320 --> 00:01:36,900 in a cooling bath of dielectric fluid. 30 00:01:36,900 --> 00:01:40,860 That fluid is non electrically conductive, non-volatile, 31 00:01:40,860 --> 00:01:43,440 and as that payload heats up that fluid, 32 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,020 it's circulated through pumps through a heat exchanger 33 00:01:46,020 --> 00:01:48,570 to maintain that valuable payload 34 00:01:48,570 --> 00:01:50,010 at the optimal temperature. 35 00:01:50,010 --> 00:01:53,160 What Leonardo DRS has done is partner with industry leaders 36 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,760 like Intel, Dell, and UNICOM to ruggedize 37 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,220 that proven immersion cooling solution 38 00:01:59,220 --> 00:02:01,290 that's been used at data centers for years. 39 00:02:01,290 --> 00:02:03,690 The rack we have here at the show has been designed 40 00:02:03,690 --> 00:02:07,740 specifically to fit inside of a standard US Navy cabinet. 41 00:02:07,740 --> 00:02:11,490 It has a 9U capacity so it fits nine servers, 42 00:02:11,490 --> 00:02:13,920 and those servers are bathed in a cooling bath 43 00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:16,920 of 26 gallons of dielectric fluid. 44 00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:18,870 As that fluid heats up, 45 00:02:18,870 --> 00:02:21,450 it's circulated by two redundant pumps 46 00:02:21,450 --> 00:02:23,310 through an onboard heat exchanger, 47 00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:25,410 and they returned back to the tank 48 00:02:25,410 --> 00:02:26,760 to keep that valuable payload 49 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,100 at exactly the right temperature. 50 00:02:29,100 --> 00:02:31,440 This particular unit can be scaled up or down, 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,330 depending on the customer's end use case 52 00:02:33,330 --> 00:02:35,310 but in this case, this particular variant 53 00:02:35,310 --> 00:02:38,610 is able to generate 35 kilowatts of cooling capacity, 54 00:02:38,610 --> 00:02:41,670 more than enough to properly maintain 55 00:02:41,670 --> 00:02:43,113 the valuable payload inside. 56 00:02:45,930 --> 00:02:47,910 IcePiercer is able to maintain that payload 57 00:02:47,910 --> 00:02:50,400 at a precisely optimal temperature, 58 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,490 so we're going to ensure that the valuable contents, 59 00:02:53,490 --> 00:02:57,150 the valuable GPUs are operating at their full capacity. 60 00:02:57,150 --> 00:02:59,850 Because IcePiercer is so efficient at cooling, 61 00:02:59,850 --> 00:03:01,320 it's able to replace the equivalent 62 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,690 of eight air cooled racks. 63 00:03:03,690 --> 00:03:07,110 So much denser, much more compact footprint 64 00:03:07,110 --> 00:03:08,790 with much more computing power. 65 00:03:08,790 --> 00:03:10,290 Also, if you've invented a server room, 66 00:03:10,290 --> 00:03:11,850 you know how loud those fans can get. 67 00:03:11,850 --> 00:03:14,956 You can barely have a conversation, they're so loud. 68 00:03:14,956 --> 00:03:16,740 IcePiercer's operating right now 69 00:03:16,740 --> 00:03:18,150 and the only way you can often tell 70 00:03:18,150 --> 00:03:20,580 is by feeling the vibration from the pumps. 71 00:03:20,580 --> 00:03:22,920 It's essentially quiet as a library. 72 00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:25,140 Third, because we're keeping that payload 73 00:03:25,140 --> 00:03:26,460 at the optimal temperature, 74 00:03:26,460 --> 00:03:29,520 because it's a sealed closed system, 75 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,860 there's no vibration, no dust, 76 00:03:31,860 --> 00:03:36,090 we're seeing a two X improvement in system reliability. 77 00:03:36,090 --> 00:03:37,920 Our customers need for advanced servers 78 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,620 and advanced computing is growing dramatically. 79 00:03:40,620 --> 00:03:43,680 With a liquid immersion cooling system like IcePiercer, 80 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,403 we can ensure that your processing needs are future proof. 81 00:03:47,403 --> 00:03:50,236 (uplifting music)
