"Full tour" Apparently means here look at 1 Isle, and outside ... so in depth

Not very much detail or information for a "full tour"

This was the shortest datacenter tour ever. “Here’s a few racks and ooooo wooowwww they have a UPS and generator solution just like every other datacenter on earth.

This is actually the super computer AI that powers clippy

1:40 First Rule in Datacenters: Don't touch anything randomly. Especially not cables!

I work in one of these DCs. And i like how they found the one aisle with no blinking error lights

I’m a construction electrician & I build these buildings in Chicagoland. It’s the most consistent work in covid times. The building and systems we are making is absolutely amazing.

Cool, but didn’t really tell us anything

0:30 There are more than 20 buildings, each large enough to house 2 aircrafts 0:35 2 million square feet and 300 acres 1:29 Almost half a million server computers

We learned more about the diesel generators than the actual hardware inside the data center. What a worthless clickbait.

Really proud of this facility. It’s a beautiful beast of a DC. So much work and it’s just amazing to see what we built from dirt to energize

Uh, nice "full" tour huh? Thanks.

I learned so much about diesel generator from this video..thank you

CEO struts his massive CEO legs. Never skips leg day at the Data Centre.

What's impressive about this is the software that runs on it. I make my living on Microsoft mostly. A lot of companies can buy half a million computers or even more, but not that many can build the kind of cloud that Microsoft, Google, Amazon have done.

It’s almost an orgasmic feeling to see the cables so well tied up and neat 🙈

Wow you get access to the a azure data center and this is all you show.. Very little information as well. This could easily be a 20 min video

In Azure, you can provision a backup power unit in a few seconds for you virtual server in the event of a power outage. Only costs $0.003 per second.

The data center look like a larger circuit board, and these houses look like larger chips, each of them contains thousands of servers, and each server has one CPU, several RAM and hard disks.

"there are more than 20 buildings"

brad smith first time at the datacenters in eastern Washington that have been there for 25 years lol

Full tour? I missed that part

my company definitely played a role in this, we manufacture the server cabinets rack and cable in the infrastructure.

So this is why Microsoft is adamant that I pay for my Word processor every year🤔.

Library of Congress can be 10TB up to Petabytes, depending how you qualify it. So meaningless.

Its a pity you never covered the DC cooling method; I could have sworn I saw a full wall of huge fans perpendicular to the server racks. Behind where they are standing, see here (1:43)

They simply bring Factorio to another level I must say.

Did any of your servers go and register with the internet companies

Data centers are one of the most secure places on earth and with this advantage, we can plant SMR's ( Small Modular Reactors) which run on nuclear fuel. And these SMR's are so advanced that they will not leave any nuclear waste and they have state-of-the-art safety mechanisms. These Data centers consume a lot of energy and Imagine if all the data centers in the world use SMR's we can make a great impact on the environment. These SMR's are being used in Nuclear Submarines and Aircraft Carriers for a very long time.

Nice data center. Was wondering, where does all electricity comes from that powers this facility? Any hydro, nuclear around?

Dissapointing. Basic things missing like recuperation, hot and cold aisles makes this looks very inefficient. Also call this short video "full tour" is kind of missleading

Around two minutes some guy fondled some fiber optic cable... that's why Exchange 362 went down again...

Thank you, a very interesting video of the Microsoft facility 👍 Au

A full tour in only 3 minutes? 😄

Didn't really surprise me that the tour is very short and didn't show us much of anything as they're keeping the servers info a secret. The back of the servers do tell a story but what are exactly in the servers is what I am most interested in. Ah well.

00:34 all that available roof-space, and not a single solar panel to at least partially assist in keep the batteries charged?

good to know that it will run on diesel under a power outage. very innovative. That was the highlight of the "full" tour.

How long can you resist wihout power from grid ? One month ?

But can it run Crysis on full graphic settings?

MS Data Center in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 52°45'48"N 5°02'17"E produced heat is sold to nearby greenhouses.

out of curiosity wouldn't they be able to consolidate a lot of this if they used HPE Moonshot?

Thanks for the support of Microsoft One Drive and Google One Drive

The amount of power they use is staggering. Probably 50-100megawatts just for this campus

Polymers will play an important part of datacenters going forward. High speed, low power. LWLG is being tested under NDA

Im considering where to store my data online. Google Drive or Microsoft Drive.. I decided to pick Microsoft because they provide pc os and already a prioneer so because of this they also know how to manage their data and im right

So instead of working with Tesla Microsoft went with diesel? that’s odd. And what about solar flares? What protections have been implemented against a Carrington event?

Show the full footage of the building with drone But Only show single cluster

Cable Management looks spot on

I used to work at the Quincy plant but they don`t tell you the things I`ve seen. There are bodies buried under the parking lot on the East end of it there. If you linger in this one spot they will tell you to leave. I got too paranoid and had to quit.

According to my calculations, that server can store around 700+ PB of data

The tour was trash, he didn't say anything yet he never stopped talking.

In five years time we'll have that in our phones

Save energy by building data centres in a central North American position in a cold environment. I suggest Winnipeg.

Where they store your data

I am an IT for 25 years. This is cool. But it’s really sad to say it’s your favorite place in the world.

Why change the generators when each one pollutes equal to one lawn mower?

Video title: MASSIVE, Full Tour Also video: 4mins

This guy just said this place is more important than having running water...

So Mr. kind sir; you will replace all the generators? getting new electric batteries for instance that probably get charged from a deiseal generators? impressive, wow!!! great job!

The funny thing is, if they switch from Windows to Linux, many less servers will handle same jobs at same time. Less servers = less buildings.

Amazing

Was it designed by Google engineers ?!

is it running linux?

The Forbin Project has been reborn ...

a great achievement, but not even in the top 10 in the world. I would have liked more information on the tech , speeds, capacity etc...

We need Linus to do a tour

1:32 he converted the text to video and vice versa right away and made some predictions :))

This what Metal Gear Solid warmed us about

GOD***THE AUTHORITY & CREATOR****

Full tour !! 4 mins !! yup, that's full tour I guess

Awesome! But can it run Crysis?

So cool to see

So wonderful

Yo lemme get one of them generators you plan to throw out.

Quincy, Washington

Can't they install some solar panels on those acres of roofs ? besides those shiny diesel generators.

Least camera-shy data center executive.

Paradise for data boys

Get rid of the generators and turn to hydrogen power, what technology powers the hydrogen production?

Are these ESXi servers :)

Powers the massive free cloud storage for every MS Office user, containing mostly home videos & pics of their Cats. NICE Meow :-)

Wait sorry each generator can power 3000 homes but makes less emissions than a lawnmower? Either you're talking about PM 2.5 ONLY, which is misleading at best, or they're SMRs.

but no one uses Bing?

1:42 what if he unplugged that cord. 🤔

All that roof space and no solar panels?

data center program super modern

Why arent there sunpannels on the roof.

So awesome imagine the electricity bill tho

After +/- 25 years it will be the size of a usb flash drive.

"Less emissions than a lawnmower" Thats not how combustion chemistry works. Maybe he means less NOx emissions

It is sad to not to have solar panels on top of those enormous foot ball field sized data centers

Sad to know that I cannot work in there because I’m not American

140 generators that emit the same CO2 as one lawnmower and used only when power from the grid fails. What are they fixing by converting to hydrogen? What CO2 problem are they fixing?

the only reason AWS, Microsoft, Google and so on want us to move to the "cloud"(or their servers and hardware) is to make more money and to make us even more dependant of them......

Some Azure apps I developed are hosted on one of these

I’ll remember

There is absolutely no energy source more efficient than diesel ICE

Could have thrown a few solar panels on those big ol roofs.

In 5 years most of those servers will probably be in a landfill as the continually upgrade the equipment.

So the GPT is here somewhere :)
