    Ep. 15 | Why AI Infrastructure Must Stay Agile

    Cloud infrastructure may appear seamless to the people using it, but behind every digital service sits an enormous physical network of data centres, power systems, cooling infrastructure and people.In Episode 15 of Data Centre Uncut, Colm MacCárthaigh, Vice President and Distinguished Engineer at Amazon Web Services (AWS), explores what it takes to build and operate digital infrastructure at hyperscale.Drawing on a career spanning network engineering, systems engineering, software development and data centre infrastructure, Colm discusses the evolution of AWS, the physical logistics behind cloud computing and how infrastructure has changed to support increasingly demanding workloads.From edge computing and liquid cooling to unprecedented AI demand and growing pressure on electricity supply, Colm explains why the next phase of infrastructure will require operators to prioritise efficiency, consistency and, above all, agility.

    Ep. 14: Why Storytelling is Crucial for Data Centres

    Data centres have moved from a largely unseen part of digital infrastructure to an industry firmly in the public spotlight. AI growth, rising energy demand, investment and government interest mean the sector is receiving more attention than ever – but public understanding has not necessarily kept pace. In Episode 14 of Data Centre Uncut, Rory Flashman-Wells, Director at Spa Communications and member of the techUK Data Centre Council, explores how the industry can communicate its importance more effectively. Drawing on more than a decade working in data centre communications, Rory discusses changing public perceptions, the UK's recognition of data centres as Critical National Infrastructure and why education needs to become a greater priority for the sector. From National Data Centre Day and community engagement to schools, skills and future career pathways, Rory examines why the industry needs to make data centres relevant to the people whose everyday digital lives depend on them.

    Ep. 13 | Is Power Becoming AI’s Biggest Constraint?

    Power is rapidly becoming one of the defining constraints on AI infrastructure growth. While demand for compute can increase almost overnight, new power generation and transmission infrastructure can still take years to develop.In this episode, energy infrastructure expert Andrii Garanin explores why the electricity grid is struggling to keep pace with AI. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience across solar, wind, gas, storage and large-scale energy infrastructure, he discusses the growing disconnect between the speed of data centre development and the infrastructure required to power it.From interconnection queues and flexible demand to battery storage and grid-interactive data centres, Andrii examines how operators can rethink their relationship with power as AI drives increasingly intensive and unpredictable workloads.

    Ep. 12 | Can AI Infrastructure Scale Fast Enough?

    AI is transforming the scale and complexity of data centre infrastructure. What were once individual data centre projects are becoming AI factories measured in hundreds of megawatts and even gigawatts, creating new challenges around power, GPUs, networking, cooling and talent. In Episode 12 of Data Centre Uncut, Blaine Daws, Co-Founder and Solutions Director at Wanted, explores what it takes to build and scale the physical infrastructure behind AI. Having worked within the NVIDIA ecosystem and supported major European AI infrastructure projects, Blaine discusses how the industry has evolved alongside accelerated computing. From sovereign AI and gigawatt-scale campuses to supply chain constraints and specialist talent shortages, Blaine examines why successful AI infrastructure requires more than capital. He also explores the growing role of liquid cooling and automation as AI factories continue to scale.

    Episode 11: Can Liquid Cooling Keep Pace With AI?

    AI is driving unprecedented demand for computing power, creating new challenges for data centre operators tasked with managing increasingly dense infrastructure. As thermal limitations become a critical constraint, liquid cooling is moving from an emerging technology to a key consideration for the next generation of data centres. In Episode 11 of Data Centre Uncut, Aida Elbouanani, Business Development Director for Middle East, Turkey and Africa at Castrol, explores how thermal management is evolving to support AI infrastructure. Drawing on her technical and commercial experience, Aida discusses Castrol’s move into data centre cooling, the role of direct-to-chip and immersion technologies and why industry collaboration is essential for scaling deployment.

    Ep. 10 | Who Controls the Data Centre Narrative?

    Data centres have moved from operating quietly in the background to becoming a near-daily topic across mainstream media. As AI drives investment and infrastructure growth, the industry is facing greater scrutiny around energy, water, development and its impact on local communities. In Episode 10 of Data Centre Uncut, Giuseppe Caltabiano, VP of Marketing at AVK, explores why the data centre industry needs to take greater control of its public narrative. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience across energy, financial services, software, data centres and AI infrastructure, Giuseppe discusses the role marketers can play in explaining a complex industry to a much wider audience. From building a collective industry voice and addressing genuine public concerns to giving senior marketers a seat at the decision-making table, Giuseppe explores what needs to change as data centres become increasingly visible

    Ep. 9 | Why the AI Boom Needs More Than Power

    On Episode 9 of the Data Centre Podcast join Tricia Arneson, founding member and Chief Operating Officer of Montera Infrastructure, for a wide-ranging conversation on AI, infrastructure development, operations, skills and the future of the data centre industry. Montera Infrastructure had an unusual opportunity when it launched: it could build its technology, processes and systems from the ground up without legacy technical debt. For Tricia, one of the most exciting aspects of the data centre industry is its position at the centre of technological change. AI may dominate today's conversation, but data centres also support the wider digital services people depend on every day, from connected devices and email to autonomous vehicles and cloud applications. Tricia believes organisations should therefore look beyond implementing AI as a standalone tool and consider how it can support broader business transformation, workflows and processes.

    Ep. 8 | Can the Grid Keep Up With AI?

    AI is transforming digital infrastructure faster than ever before, but the biggest challenge isn't compute, it's power. As hyperscalers race to deploy AI at unprecedented scale, the energy sector is under pressure to deliver reliable, sustainable power faster than the grid was ever designed to accommodate. In this episode of the Data Centre Podcast, host Ella Wilkinson speaks with Ishan Jaithwa, VP of Data Centres & Utilities at Cypress Creek Renewables, about the future of AI infrastructure, grid capacity, renewable energy and why collaboration across the entire ecosystem will determine who succeeds in the AI era.
