Datacenters are facilities that house computing, storage and networking systems used to run digital services, process data and support cloud platforms. They range from enterprise server rooms to hyperscale campuses, with power, cooling, physical security and network connectivity as core infrastructure. Their design increasingly reflects demand for AI workloads, energy efficiency, resilience and low-latency data delivery.
NVIDIA’s NVHBM proposal shifts memory-control circuitry into the HBM stack, aiming to give custom AI accelerators more bandwidth, usable silicon area and power headroom than standard HBM4E designs.
Ulanqab’s emergence as an AI computing hub shows how China is pairing demand for artificial intelligence with the energy, land and network advantages of its interior regions.
Retail prices for some DDR5 memory kits have risen by almost 500% year on year, reflecting an exceptional squeeze in the wider DRAM and NAND markets rather than a uniform increase across every type of RAM.
Sandisk ended fiscal 2026 with sharply higher revenue, margins and cash generation, while its next-quarter outlook points to continued demand for flash storage in data-centre and edge markets.
Reported long-term supply commitments between Intel, AMD and Chinese server customers underline how AI infrastructure demand is reshaping the market for conventional data-centre processors.
