Korean telcos\' AI data centre race turns to operations, focusing on cooling, connectivity and power efficiency

Korea’s three telecom operators are stepping up efforts to apply their in-house capabilities to AI data centres as competition shifts from capacity expansion to operational execution. As centres scale up, heat and power consumption rise, putting cooling efficiency, stable power supply and network connectivity at the centre of competitiveness. SK Telecom is building an AI data centre unit and developing server solutions and resource-linking architecture. KT is focusing on data centre interconnection and liquid cooling. LG Uplus is combining group technologies in cooling, power and AI-based infrastructure management.
