Data centers finally a profitable business again
After a long nuclear winter, it looks like the data center may be turning profitable again: Cultivating Server Farms - New York Times. The major issue now? availability of reliable power. I have it on good authority that Google considered buying an old soviet nuclear aircraft carrier as a reliable power source for their data center. What is next? Biofuels for back up power I would guess.
