NTT DoCoMo Highest Data ARPU

Japanese operator NTT DoCoMo again recorded the world�s highest data ARPU in Q2 2005, according to the September edition of Informa Telecoms & Media�s World Cellular Data Metrics. Thanks mainly to its successful i-mode portal, NTT DoCoMo�s subscribers
spent $17.6 per month on data services during the period.

Japan is clearly the leading market in terms of data ARPU. NTT DoCoMo�s domestic rival KDDI took second place in the data ARPU rankings ($16.4) with Vodafone Japan in fourth ($12.4).

�NTT DoCoMo�s i-mode ARPU alone amounted to $16.9 in Q2 2005 - this is higher than many operators� voice and data ARPU combined,� observed Kester Mann, Senior Research Analyst at Informa Telecoms & Media. NTT DoCoMo had more than 43.3 million active i-mode users as of June 2005, equivalent to 85 percent of its total subscription base. NTT DoCoMo�s total data revenues exceeded $2.4 billion for the period.

AI-Driven Data Center Liquid Cooling Demand

The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) and hyperscale cloud computing is fundamentally reshaping data center infrastructure, and liquid cooling is emerging as an indispensable solution. As traditional air-cooled systems reach their physical limits, the IT industry is under pressure to adopt more efficient thermal management strategies to meet growing demands, while complying with stringent environmental regulations. Liquid Cooling Market Development The latest ABI Research analysis reveals momentum in liquid cooling adoption. Installations are forecast to quadruple between 2023 and 2030. The market will reach $3.7 billion in value by the decade's end, with a CAGR of 22 percent. The urgency behind these numbers becomes clear when examining energy metrics: liquid cooling systems demonstrate 40 percent greater energy efficiency when compared to conventional air-cooling architectures, while simultaneously enabling ~300-500 percent increases in computational density per rac...
