Keeping all that data requires a large amount of
data centers to keep user data secure. 11 Likes

It's located in a subarctic environment that allows
the data center to have minimal cooling expenses.
It is powered by affordable electricity that’s 100%
renewable (12 hydro-electric plants at nearby
rivers). 10 Likes

The giant fans draw frigid air from outside into the
data center to cool the thousands of servers. Heat
from the servers also help to keep the employees
warm. 8 Likes 3 Shares

About 150 employees work in the data center, but
the giant halls are usually empty. Only 1 technician
is needed for over 25,000 servers at one location,
and they have to move around in the spaces using
scooters due to the distances they need to cover. 7 Likes

Repairing a server requires just 2 minutes. Once a server gets old , they’re physically destroyed so that user data remains private. 7 Likes

Zuckerberg has the largest social network in the world yet he's not satisfied. He just wants to acquire any social network that is trying to make name for themselves. He now has Instagram and whatsapp and now he's fighting to either takeover snapchat or kill it completely. This shows that man is never satisfied. I still wonder how twitter managed to survive the mighty Facebook. Twitter is sweeter than Facebook ![]() 138 Likes 10 Shares |
