What it is
Wesco article addressing strategies for winning complex data center projects, specifically noting that AI inference is driving higher rack power density and reshaping data center power, cooling, and modular infrastructure strategies.
Why it matters
AI workloads are increasing rack power density in data centers, forcing facilities teams to re-evaluate power distribution and cooling strategies. Without access to the full article, specific design constraints, thresholds, or implementation details cannot be verified.
