Samsung targets 2028 for floating datacenter launch
Samsung plans to commercialize a seaborne datacenter concept by 2028, using ocean water for cooling and potentially reducing energy costs. The floating facility would house servers in a ship-like structure, addressing land and power constraints. The project is still in early stages, with technical and regulatory hurdles ahead.

While the concept is novel, the 2028 timeline is ambitious given the lack of proven large-scale deployments and the engineering challenges of operating datacenters at sea.
