o Work with infrastructure engineers and Facilities to provide optimized cooling (inlet temperature, containment temperature, etc.) to support the infrastructure in the racks
o As infrastructure power increases, evaluate new power and cooling technologies to enable more infrastructure capacity
o Develop a roadmap to align with our infrastructure deployment plans with changes in technology and new product releases
o Evaluate real time data to revise power/cooling recommendations and make updates
