Abstract: Devices, apparatuses, and systems for thermal management in networking and computing systems are provided. An example in-rack thermal management system includes a cooling distribution unit (CDU) that includes a housing that defines a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, thermal management components supported by the housing, and direct mechanical connections coupled with the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet. The in-rack thermal management system includes a fluid distribution system that includes a primary fluid channel directly coupled with the direct mechanical connection of the fluid inlet, and a secondary fluid channel directly coupled with the direct mechanical connection of the fluid outlet. In operation, the thermal management components dissipate heat of a fluid received by the CDU via the fluid inlet. The direct mechanical connections directly interface with the fluid distribution system to provide fluid communication between the CDU and the fluid distribution system to maximize dimensions of the housing.

Abstract: Some embodiments described herein provide intelligent movable racks for a data center and a central system for monitoring and directing the positioning of such racks within the data center. For example, a rack may include computing equipment as well as a power system, a cooling system, and a cabling system (e.g., for data communication). The rack may include a controller in communication with the computing equipment, the power system, the cooling system, and the cabling system. The rack may also include a rack interface for physically supporting the rack and operatively connecting the systems of the rack to power, cooling, and cabling infrastructure of the data center. The rack interface may receive an autonomous robot for moving the rack within the data center. The controller may control the power system and the cooling system based in part on the autonomous movement of the rack.
