As Generative AI technology accelerates, AI data centers have emerged as critical infrastructure for enabling innovations in artificial intelligence and big data. Next-generation devices such as NVIDIA's B200 and GB200 are being rapidly adopted to meet growing AI compute demands. However, their advanced architectures differ substantially from traditional systems, driving the need for more sophisticated management solutions. For instance, the GB200 integrates two B200 Blackwell GPUs with an Arm-based Grace CPU, creating a high-performance configuration that poses new management challenges. From hardware status monitoring to software scheduling, more precise and intelligent control mechanisms are essential to maintain operational efficiency. Moreover, the elevated computing power of these devices leads to higher energy consumption, increasing the risk of performance bottlenecks, or even system outages in the event of failures. As a result, energy efficiency and real-time system monitoring have become mission-critical for ensuring the stability and sustainability of AI data center operations. KSManage Provides Intelligent, Refined Management for AI Data Centers KSManage builds on a wealth of experience in traditional device management and supports more than 5,000 device models. Its comprehensive management framework spans IT, network, security, and other infrastructure components. The platform enables real-time monitoring of critical server components, including CPU, memory, and storage drives.

The upgraded KSManage delivers comprehensive monitoring of key performance indicators for GB200 and B200 devices, including GPU performance, CPU utilization, and memory bandwidth. Through 3D real-time modeling, it dynamically visualizes resource distribution and intelligently adjusts allocation based on workload demands. The platform also features automated network topology management, enabling real-time optimization of NVLink connectivity, and contributing to a 90% boost in operational efficiency. During large model training, KSManage automatically allocates more computing resources to relevant tasks, optimizing the distribution of CPU, GPU, and other components. This ensures higher device utilization, improved computational efficiency, and significantly faster training times. Specific for intelligent fault detection, the upgraded KSManage introduces a three-tier monitoring framework spanning the component, machine, and cluster levels. At the component level, it leverages the PLDM protocol to enable precise monitoring of critical metrics such as GPU memory status. When computational errors are detected in B200 GPUs, KSManage rapidly analyzes error logs to distinguish between hardware faults and software conflicts, achieving over 92% accuracy in fault localization and taking timely corrective actions. At the machine level, KSManage integrates both BMC out-of-band logs and OS in-band logs to support fast and reliable hardware diagnostics. At the cluster level, federated management technology enables cross-domain alarm correlation and analysis, and triggers self-healing engines capable of responding to risks within seconds. The system also synchronizes with a high-precision liquid leak monitoring solution to enhance equipment safety. Collectively, these capabilities significantly reduce Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) and improve Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), ensuring higher stability and resilience across AI data center operations. Intelligent Management of Green, Liquid-Cooled AI Data Centers As power density in AI data centers continues to increase, cooling has become a critical factor influencing both device performance and operational lifespan. To address this challenge, liquid cooling technology—recognized for its high thermal efficiency—has been widely adopted across next-generation AI infrastructure. The upgraded KSManage introduces a new liquid cooling detection feature that enhances both the efficiency and safety of liquid cooling operations in AI data centers.

Powered by AI-driven precision control, the platform achieves a 50% improvement in flow utilization and delivers up to 10% additional energy savings in the liquid cooling system. In addition, KSManage enhances operational reliability by providing real-time anomaly detection in the liquid cooling system. When issues such as abnormal flow rates, pressure fluctuations, temperature control failures, or condensation are detected, the system triggers instant alerts and delivers detailed fault diagnostics, enabling maintenance teams to quickly identify and resolve problems. In the event of a critical coolant leak, KSManage coordinates with the Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) to deliver a millisecond-level response. Upon detection, the system immediately shuts off coolant flow and initiates an automatic power-down of the CDU, ensuring maximum protection of devices and infrastructure. For high-power devices such as the GB200 and B200, KSManage delivers fine-grained energy consumption management at the GPU level. It dynamically adjusts the Thermal Design Power (TDP) thresholds of H100/B200 GPUs, while integrating intelligent temperature regulation technologies—such as variable-frequency fluorine pumps—within the liquid cooling system. These optimizations help reduce Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) to below 1.3. Additionally, the platform's power-environment interaction module leverages AI algorithms to predict potential cooling system failures. Through synergistic optimization of computing power and energy consumption, KSManage reduces the power usage per cabinet by 20%, effectively lowering device failure rates and improving overall energy efficiency. KSManage has been successfully deployed across a wide range of industries globally, including internet, finance, and telecommunications.

CNBC Daily Open: Funny how the S&P 500 is teasing a new high amid uncertainties
Have we gone back in time? It certainly seems on the markets front. Just look at the S&P 500 and you will think that it's back in February — before U.S. President Donald Trump's "reciprocal" tariffs, before the White House's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," and before the war between Israel and Iran. On February 19, the broad-based index closed at an all-time high of 6,144.15. Yesterday, it ended the trading session at 6,092.16. That's a difference of less than 1%. A light breeze (or rogue social media post from the sitting U.S. president) could push the S&P 500 beyond that level. In another sign investors seemed to be back to the days before trade and geopolitical uncertainty, Nvidia's again in the headlines after it surged 4.3% to close at a new high, a symbol of the optimism surrounding artificial intelligence that drove much of 2024's market gains. What's strange is that the market appears to have shrugged off heavy loads that have been weighing it down since March. Tariff worries still persist. Trump on Wednesday threatened Spain that he would "make them pay twice as much" in a trade deal because the European country is resisting an increase in spending on defense. The war between Israel and Iran, though currently paused thanks to a ceasefire, is not conclusively over. And that truce appears fragile — it was almost broken just hours after it kicked in. Who knows how the planned U.S. talks with Iran next week will go. (As long as it doesn't descend into the shouting match in the Oval Office when Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was there, I'd consider it a success.) Nostalgia is alluring. But that allure can be dangerous. The S&P 500 is at the cusp of a new high. The index, however, ended Wednesday little changed. Tech stocks rose, with many hitting intraday highs. But Asia-Pacific markets mostly fell Thursday, with Japan's Nikkei 225 one of the few indexes in the green. Trump threatened Spain with a tough trade deal. The U.S. president made those comments at NATO's annual summit after the alliance's allies — barring Spain — agreed to meet a defense spending target of 5% of gross domestic product by 2035. Nvidia's the most valuable company again. Shares jumped 4.3% on Wednesday and closed at a record — the first time it's done so since January. Asian chip stocks chased Nvidia's highs on Thursday. China urges development bank to support Belt and Road. Chinese Premier Li Qiang on Thursday urged the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, a Beijing-backed development bank, to increase its support for the Beijing-launched regional development program. [PRO] Investors are holding their breath. The U.S. market seems surprisingly resilient to trade friction and geopolitical instability. In fact, the S&P 500 seems on track to close at a fresh record. But risks that could knock it off course remain. Japan rice crisis shows signs of easing as stock return to shelves After months of soaring rice prices, Japanese consumers may be finally getting some relief. Data from Japan's agriculture ministry showed that the average price of a 5-kg bag of rice had fallen to 3,920 yen ($27.03) for the week ending June 15. It's the first time that the price dropped below the 4,000-yen mark since the week that ended on March 2. That's partly thanks to the government releasing its rice reserves. But many consumers are concerned that the stockpiled rice is old and not as tasty, according to a professor of Japanese business.
