Submer Designs Liquid-Cooled Data Center In a Box for High-Power Edge Computing Sites
The Barcelona-based startup’s container submerges servers in dielectric fluid, enabling 800kW of IT load in a 40-foot-long box.
Liquid cooling company Submer has introduced a new modular data center solution that, by submerging servers in dielectric fluid, will enable its customers to pack a lot of compute muscle in a relatively small amount of space.
The Barcelona-based startup’s new MegaPod data center, which comes in 10-foot to 40-foot containers, is aimed at customers with high-density edge computing requirements, Submer CEO Daniel Pope, told DCK.
“It’s super high-density,” he said. “A traditional 40-foot modular data center would probably [provide] a maximum of 100kW today. We can provide 800kW in that same space.”
