During the 19-minute interview, Bokiba discusses the hidden complexities in scaling liquid cooling for hyperscale data centers, including the impact on infrastructure planning when shifting from air cooling. He also explains why true “supply chain assurance” is more than just having inventory on hand.

Bokiba outlines what makes pumps and CDUs “first-order constraints” in today’s hyperscale environments and how Moog is addressing the reliability, performance and demands of these components at scale. He also shares how the company’s partnership with USA Rare Earth reflects its commitment to supply chain resilience and domestic sourcing.
