About this Event

This event is all about safety, security and contamination control in the AI Age.

AI and more specifically the data centres that host AI Clusters raise the requirements over standard enterprise/colocation data centres in terms of security, safety and contamination control.

In this event we cover the impending revision to the Data Centre Alliance Anti -Contamination Guidance to be published shortly, the requirements of ISO 14644-1 especially in regard to NVidia Clusters, designing data centrers for these enhanced requirements, a rack cleaning demonstration, fire detection and supression, why the NVidia GPUS require additional anti-contamination elements to be applied and finally with the prospect of SMRs being used to power AI Data Centres, what measures need to be taken with regards to nuclear security and contamination control.

The event will round off with networking drinks.

Lunch will be available for £10 (payable on the day) please advise any dietary requirements to [email protected] or via your ticket booking.

Emails will be sent prior to the event to cover the event logisitics and dietary requirements.
