New Data Center Standard

mstansberry writes to tell us that the Telecommunications Industry Association (the people who brought you the CAT standards for unshielded twisted pair cabling) recently published a 148 page document meant to standardize the design considerations for every single aspect of a data center. The standard covers everything from site selection to rack mounting methods.

    1. Create and publish an industry trade standard (real or imagined.)
    2. Charge $250 per hardcopy or .pdf copy of standard.
    3. Profit.

    I look forward to the day when data center security is standardized and one hacker can bring down the whole world.
