"Full tour" Apparently means here look at 1 Isle, and outside ... so in depth
I mean once you see one you've kind of seen them all. At least thats what I used to say. Until I saw them all
I work at one of these datacenters, there's really not much else you missed. Generic offices and like he said a metal detection checkpoint.
😂 my thoughts exactly
Not very much detail or information for a "full tour"
its highly regualted i worked at a microsoft site once and the security was crazy. and this was under construction
@@antonholmgren7067 Yeah of course, I had the chance to go visit the North Europe datacentre once but couldn't make it. Gutted.
@@antonholmgren7067 of course it's highly regulated. But this is just a 3 minute overview, not a full tour. 😉
@@Sierra-Whisky but when i was there u needed a permit to document things and my permit was only work relatable photos and such
How much information and details do you really need? It's literally just a loud room of racks upon racks of big computers.
I work in one of these DCs. And i like how they found the one aisle with no blinking error lights
well said!
Well damn u would be correct
I'm very interested. What kinds or errors crop up? Would they be understandable to an ordinary adult, not employed in the field?
1:40 First Rule in Datacenters: Don't touch anything randomly. Especially not cables!
Second rule of data centers: I can't hear you the fans are too loud
That right there probably was the cause of someone's host crash or unavailability.
@@bandanaboii3136 what?
He was probably asking why are they too loose!
i think he knows what hes doing
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
😂😂😂😂
Made my day ;-)
Comedy gold. And it still takes one hour for updates to complete 🤓
All Hail Clippy ✊🏻
@@chrisnurse6430 The kings of slow non working updates.
We learned more about the diesel generators than the actual hardware inside the data center. What a worthless clickbait.
lol they're not gonna tell u what hardware they're running, its a security risk
@@63JackBlack obscurity is not a replacement for security.
@@Dylan-xc8yz What exactly does that mean?
I understand what you mean.
Fortunately for me, I actually care more about the generators.
@@midkort LoL!
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
You didnt watch close enough..the whole video is full of "wow"
They are trying to " update "this error...😬😬😂🤣
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
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
Wtf did you have to do with it 💀
I learned so much about diesel generator from this video..thank you
Uh, nice "full" tour huh? Thanks.
CEO struts his massive CEO legs. Never skips leg day at the Data Centre.
It’s almost an orgasmic feeling to see the cables so well tied up and neat 🙈
Full tour? I missed that part
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.
While they all supress your freedom of speech, ability to provide for you and you family, and say you pollute to much and shouldn’t own a car or house because you are the reason for “Global Warming”. The Globalist Pedophile Tech Companies are doomed if they fulfill the WEF Agenda to decrease global population to 500,000,00 and centralized Global Government that they want and strive for.
Did any of your servers go and register with the internet companies
Around two minutes some guy fondled some fiber optic cable... that's why Exchange 362 went down again...
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
So this is why Microsoft is adamant that I pay for my Word processor every year🤔.
How long can you resist wihout power from grid ? One month ?
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.
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
But you get corporate inspiration music!
Pile of M$ 💩
They're very secure, im surprised they even released this much footage of the site, let alone the inside.
They simply bring Factorio to another level I must say.
I was expecting a military grade security detail. It turns out you only need a covid mask. 😅
"there are more than 20 buildings"
Around 22.
Nearly 23.
Where they store your data
my company definitely played a role in this, we manufacture the server cabinets rack and cable in the infrastructure.
company name?
Library of Congress can be 10TB up to Petabytes, depending how you qualify it. So meaningless.
brad smith first time at the datacenters in eastern Washington that have been there for 25 years lol
Not this one
A full tour in only 3 minutes? 😄
Thank you, a very interesting video of the Microsoft facility 👍 Au
The tour was trash, he didn't say anything yet he never stopped talking.
But can it run Crysis on full graphic settings?
is it running linux?
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.
Nearly $11 a minute? That's expensive!
@@Dylan-xc8yz that would be $11/hr and $.18/minute
Thanks for the support of Microsoft One Drive and Google One Drive
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.
Least camera-shy data center executive.
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.
Family i love you thanks for supporting me
Cable Management looks spot on
looks quite bad to be honest
Meeh, I've seen a lot better
Amazing
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)
CRAH units supplying that cooling coming from cooled water from the outside fluid coolers (wet/dry/adiabatic cooling).
@@Purefoo212 Thats what I thought. All new decent DC's seem to go with the free air/Adiabatic.
Show the full footage of the building with drone
But
Only show single cluster
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.
Why change the generators when each one pollutes equal to one lawn mower?
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.
Nice data center. Was wondering, where does all electricity comes from that powers this facility? Any hydro, nuclear around?
Mainly hydro, as it is located just off the Columbia River.
00:34 all that available roof-space, and not a single solar panel to at least partially assist in keep the batteries charged?
batteries?
out of curiosity wouldn't they be able to consolidate a lot of this if they used HPE Moonshot?
This guy just said this place is more important than having running water...
good to know that it will run on diesel under a power outage. very innovative. That was the highlight of the "full" tour.
Not really. What would've been innovative would be to get this thing running on renewables in the event of a power outage.
@@AviationTV I was trying to be sarcastic. Diesel engines were invented more than a hundred years ago
but no one uses Bing?
So cool to see
So wonderful
Video title: MASSIVE, Full Tour
Also video: 4mins
In five years time we'll have that in our phones
Ok
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.
The gel packs from ST Voyager.
I work in Data Center. Basically think of it as many teams involved and the ones on site working with the servers don’t actually control what’s going on in the server. That is something the Application team views on their end. They are somewhere else in the world utilizing remote connection to connect into the servers in order to play with them.
Was it designed by Google engineers ?!
We need Linus to do a tour
Paradise for data boys
MS Data Center in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 52°45'48"N 5°02'17"E produced heat is sold to nearby greenhouses.
This what Metal Gear Solid warmed us about
Polymers will play an important part of datacenters going forward. High speed, low power. LWLG is being tested under NDA
do you have links cuz I love that kind of stuff. I know they're using super computers to find new materials like you've said.
The Forbin Project has been reborn ...
The amount of power they use is staggering. Probably 50-100megawatts just for this campus
It's probably around double that now since they have expanded.
Yep - and data centers like these are being built every day to store stupid tiktok vids among other things, and consume huge amounts of electricity.
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
GOD***THE AUTHORITY & CREATOR****
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?
I’ll remember
Not a single solar panel in sight. All that energy just going to waste.
Green light doesn’t blink
According to my calculations, that server can store around 700+ PB of data
Source?
Save energy by building data centres in a central North American position in a cold environment. I suggest Winnipeg.
There is absolutely no energy source more efficient than diesel ICE
1:32 he converted the text to video and vice versa right away and made some predictions :))
1:42 what if he unplugged that cord. 🤔
Quincy, Washington
Full tour !! 4 mins !! yup, that's full tour I guess
"Less emissions than a lawnmower" Thats not how combustion chemistry works. Maybe he means less NOx emissions
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.
Why arent there sunpannels on the roof.
Forget hydrogen, find an alternative energy solution that will work in darkness as well as in light.
data center program super modern
Awesome! But can it run Crysis?
Are these ESXi servers :)
Some Azure apps I developed are hosted on one of these
Yo lemme get one of them generators you plan to throw out.
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!
Lets see the first prototype of a clean energy generator microsoft?
All that roof space and no solar panels?
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...
So the GPT is here somewhere :)
Someone's doing something right!
What? No windmills?
Haha
ONE IBM mainframe can do away with 4,000 of these toys
Please remove "full tour" from title. SMH.
Not a single solar panel in sight smh
anybody else here because of the diesel shortage?
