The following installments of this article look at the progress of this data centre arms race and a few of the new generation of large data centres that have been built across the world. There are, no doubt, some facilities which would warrant a mention that dont appear below because of a lack of available data, particularly regarding those run by online application giants such as Google and Facebook for purely their own use. Information is more...more
The final part of this trilogy looking into the growth of data centre facilities around the world focuses on the existing power house of data centre construction, North America, in particular the US, and the emerging contenders within Asia.USThere are currently thought to be five centres that are as large or larger than that in Newport, Wales and four of them are to be found in the US. The smallest of these is the NAP of the Americas data centre, located within the urban sprawl of Miami in Florida. Matching the Newport facility for floor space at 750,000 square feet, it is not only a key installation for both the US military and global DNS infrastructure, but is a vital hub for IT Operations in the south east of the US and Latin America beyond.The next up the chain is the home of Twitters servers amongst others - the QTS Metro Data Centre in Atlanta Georgia - with a square footage of 990,000. The building which originated as a Sears distribution centre and, like many of the other contenders, was repurposed into a data centre, now houses its own substation to support its vast power consumption.The single largest data centre building in the world is the Lakeside Technology Center....more

However, the biggest problem with such devices is that the space for storage is limited. In addition to it, the threat of damage to such devices is always there which makes backup on such devices unreliable.Remote data backup ensures 100% protection against the constant danger of data loss. Such software takes hardly five minutes to install on the computer. Once installed, it eliminates the dependency upon CDs and USBs for data storage. The process of storage is not at all cumbersome. One can daily make it a point to store the files and data of everyday work and the date is stored remotely. Therefore, even in worst...more
