Panel: Executing Retrofit Work in Live Data Center Environments Without Disrupting Uptime
8:10 am
- Navigating strict uptime constraints in live data centers by aligning retrofit execution with operational controls to protect customer workloads and system resilience
- Improving planning for shutdowns, cutovers and integration activities to minimize disruption and maintain operational continuity
- Developing contingency and risk mitigation plans that enable rapid response when construction activities, outages or sequencing do not go as planned
- Identifying construction challenges that differentiate retrofits from new builds

Assessing Existing Power & Electrical Topologies to Determine Readiness for AI-Scale Demand
1:30 pm
- Gauging whether existing electrical infrastructure, distribution systems and backup power configurations can support higher densities without compromising resiliency
- Exploring strategies for expanding power capacity while maintaining live operations to minimize disruption to customers
- Identifying available or underused power in existing or nearby sites to repurpose for data center use
- Collaborating with utility providers to assess available grid capacity and long-term power availability needed to support higher-density AI workloads
