SemiAnalysis 指出,数据中心建造方式正转向工厂预制:把装有设备的金属外壳在工厂内组装完成,再运到现场像乐高积木一样堆叠拼接。相比传统方式需把设备和峰值 7000 名工人全部带到德州 Abilene 现场,新方式号称即插即用,但推文也暗示这一说法仍有待商榷。
Datacenters are being built like Lego. The pieces come out of a factory.
"Instead of building your datacenter in a traditional way, where you bring all the equipment to the site and then you bring all the workforce, all the 7,000 workers at peak, to the middle of Abilene, Texas, you are going to build it like your old Lego, just piece by piece."
"Think of a metal enclosure with equipment inside. You're going to do that in the factory, then ship it to the site, stack different Lego pieces of that datacenter, and connect them all."
"It's supposed to be plug and play. We can talk about why I say supposed."
