As we discussed in Part 1, defining true data center energy efficiency is challenging. Existing metrics examine the data center as a building, but the argument can be made that a data center is much more than that. A data center is a service that, in a general sense,... ![[VIDEO] Major Changes to ASHRAE’s Fifth Edition of Thermal Guidelines – Part 3: Liquid Cooling Chapter Updates](https://www.upsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/major-changes-to-ashraes-fifth-edition-of-thermal-guidelines-part-3-liquid-cooling-chapter-updates-1080x675.jpg)
