US Patent 7511959 Scalable computing apparatus

Disclosed are scalable computing pods that may be embodied in trailers, storage containers, or other portable structures that optimize computing, power, cooling and building infrastructure. The pods integrate required power and cooling infrastructure to provide a standalone turnkey computing solution. A user connects the pod to utility AC power and a data pipe. The scalable computing pods utilize liquid cooling, eliminate coolant conversions, and eliminate unnecessary power conversion to drastically improve efficiency.
