Data centers are noisy places. Sometimes you have to raise your voice to be heard. But you shouldn‘t shout right next to a rack of equipment, as illustrated by Brendan Gregg in 2008. Brendan used analytics software developed to demonstrate that shouting next to working racks can cause significant disk latency. Today, vibration is an even bigger risk to AI Environments; even low-amplitude persistent vibration can affect system performance, increase error rates, and accelerate equipment wear. So, theoretically, one could destroy an AI Data Center with Bass.
