Googles First Container Data Center Tour
This is an amazing video showing what Google are achieving when it comes to datacentres. This example has 45,000 servers and when you see the cooling towers and chillers you realsie that is huge investment. The electrical distribution centre and cabling is huge.
Looking at this cooling plant it is shocking how many pumps are used. The chillers use the most power and this was something else we felt shocked at.
These container storage data centers have 3 floors and when you see the UPS system for each server it is shocking how they have managed to fit this all in.
The rooms is kept at 27 degrees Celcius and now we have seen how many servers are in these containers it is clear why Google need all the cooling.
