Powering Intelligent Data Centers with a Data‑Driven Backbone

FEB 25, 2026
11AM ET | 8AM PT | 5PM CET

Webinar Overview

AI‑scale loads, liquid cooling, and hyperscaler SLAs are exposing the limits of polled monitoring and homegrown telemetry in modern data centers.

In this webinar, data center industry experts walk through real customer projects where they designed a real‑time data streaming backbone across power, cooling, and compute — and what broke along the way.

Attendees will get practical patterns they can reuse to modernize data flow for improved outcomes and ROI.

What you’ll take away from this in-depth webinar:

  • Lessons from the field: How operators hit the wall with legacy data collection methods, and what changed when they moved to an event‑driven backbone for AI‑heavy, liquid‑cooled sites.

  • Reference architectures that scale: Concrete designs for a unified data platform, OT/IT segmentation, and patterns that serve clients, hyperscalers, and ESG/reporting systems.

  • A realistic rollout playbook: Where to start (and what to avoid) when moving from first pilot to multi‑site deployment — including scoping, ROI framing, and the roles needed to get from architecture slide to a running system.
