• Compute density per rack increased by 28X from an H100 rack to a Rubin rack.
• Networking within a rack has grown similarly, hitting the limits of copper cabling
• Rack power moved from roughly 5-10 kW to 100-250 kW to support today’s systems and will increase to 1MW over the next 3 years.
• Data center scale is moving from tens to hundreds of MW and, in some cases, GW-scale campuses.
• Power is increasingly supplied not only from grid-only to grid plus behind-the-meter or captive sources.
