Microsoft Built a Data Centre Under THE OCEAN

[MD-slms]

The next Mission Impossible movie should feature this

Only Microsoft can pull off the unthinkable: putting the cloud under the sea.

[ZootedSosa]

8 times more efficiency is actually crazy

[filip]

I was very intrigued by this project when it was announced and recovered. Interested to get more info on the data they gathered, like any side effects from the operation of these data centres.

Bad idea imagine the fishes spying on our data🤔

[blenderpanzi]

So the sysadmins need to wear scuba gear now?

The underwater data centers are for tests of zero tolerance insurance and reliance. So, when they break because of small sounds or repetitive sounds; the zero tolerance insurance becomes unidentifiable like they were a connection fully lost. Thus, the design of the program and process of making underwater data centers is like an insurance test. Therefore, when people do things like travel on property that they are not allowed to be on, the underwater data centers breaks. Many may not notice the effects of how much changes when the zero tolerance insurance becomes unidentifiable but the people who know knew how much work and how many real risks went into the procedure. When technology specialists find limitations that proves they need underwater data centers as well as a zero tolerance insurance agreement being upheld, they see that it's a root system that explains the common sense about why it requires a lot more than anything considered common due to how fragile the business really is.

Good video, doesn't do justice to how massive that thing actually is.

Arrr, me hearties! Avast! We've stumbled upon a treasure trove - a Microsoft data center adrift in Davy Jones' locker! Yo-ho-ho!

[iEvoke]

Microsoft warming the ocean, just what we needed..

[DeepakKumar-lvte]

good idea, and creates long term diving ecosystems too, like shipwrecks.

Storing data underwater? Not sus at all!

[getit]

But why would you do this? What about maintenance? What about security (avoiding damage from current etc.)? What about the much higher construction costs? You can have a reliable data center with excellent cooling on land as well

[JMiskovsky]

Even better is to use waste heat to heat buldings. People heat homes with crypto mining. You can link it to heat exchnagers.

Data centers with site visits not possible?

[kentslocum]

Next they'll be putting data center on the glaciers to help them melt faster! 😮

[DJB]

Hmm. Any chance enough of these could be built to maintain coastal ocean temperatures around the UK if the Gulf Stream fails?

[MacStoker]

FUN FACT, , , theyre still looking for Nessy

[billkgeorge]

Can someone explain the nitrogen purge / filling? No oxygen : prevention of some silicon component oxidation? What hardware part ever gets degraded / decayed does to O2?

[pretherox]

Guys, is the ocean! 70% of Earth surface! It's a bit hard for us to warm it with this! even if you build a lot of them in the same place the impact would be minimal or non existent!
