Abstract
Data centers are warehouse-scale computers in the era of cloud computing and big data applications. Modular data center has shown great promise in providing scalable computing resources and it is deemed to be the key building block of the next-generation data center infrastructure. Modular data center can be installed either inside of a warehouse-scale data center or near the network edge. In this talk, we mainly introduce the concept and history of modular data centers. We will discuss the benefits and limitations of such design and the ways to efficiently manage them. Finally, we will envision the role of modular data center architecture in the next few years facing the “new infrastructure project” initiative.
数据中心是云计算和大数据应用时代下的仓库规模的计算机。模块化数据中心具有计算资源可扩展的突出优势，因此被看作下一代数据中心的基本组成单元。模块化数据中心能够部署于仓库规模数据中心内部，也能放置在网络边缘。在这个报告中，我们主要介绍模块化数据中心的概念和历史。我们进一步会简要讨论有关设计的优缺点，以及如何高效的管理和运行模块化数据中心。最后，我们会对模块化数据中心架构如何在未来“新基建”环境中发挥作用进行展望。
