Modernizing Federal IT with AI-Ready Modular Data Centers

This white paper discusses the modernization of U.S. federal IT infrastructure through the adoption of prefabricated modular data centers (PMDCs) to enhance artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. It outlines the challenges faced by federal agencies in upgrading legacy data center systems, which often lack the power density and cooling necessary for high-density AI workloads. The paper details how PMDCs can address these challenges by providing advanced technologies, agile architecture, and rapid deployment capabilities. It emphasizes the importance of aligning PMDC solutions with federal operational and compliance requirements, enabling agencies to innovate and scale effectively. The document also highlights the federal government's commitment to AI adoption and the legislative measures supporting this initiative. Additionally, it presents key facts about PMDCs, including their security features, customization options, and the potential for significant cost savings through innovative financing models. Overall, the paper serves as a guide for federal agencies looking to modernize their IT infrastructure to support AI-driven mission outcomes.
