Upcoming Event: DITC Seminar on Technological Innovation and Standard Coordination of Digital Infrastructure (Beijing)-2nd Session 2026
DITC to Host Seminar on Technological Innovation and Standard Coordination of Digital Infrastructure (Beijing) 2nd Session 2026 in Beijing
As artificial intelligence and high-performance computing drive unprecedented demand for data processing capabilities, the digital infrastructure sector faces critical challenges that transcend borders. Traditional cooling technologies are struggling to meet the energy efficiency requirements of next-generation computing centres. While liquid cooling has emerged as the industry's preferred solution, inconsistent metering methodologies and varying technical standards across regions continue to impede widespread adoption and optimal performance.
DITC, together with its China regional cooperative partner-the China Communications Industry Association Data Center Committee(CIDC)-plans to hold this one‑day seminar to drive innovation and standards collaboration.
The seminar will accelerate work on several key international standards currently under development, including the Guide for Sustainable Operation and Maintenance Management of Data Centres and the Testing and Verification Guide of Liquid Cooling Fluid Connectors in AI Computing Centres.
