James Bond Villain Data Center

jeet writes "Data centers are boring and NOCs are doubly so. But this one sure beats all of them. Found this video of a data center suited for james bond villain on Data Center Knowledge website. The facility is established in a hydrogen bomb safe bunker and has generators used in German submarines. The CEO takes you around and shows some other cool features."

    Our Malda, who art at Slashdot,
    CmdrTaco be thy name,
    Thy typo come,
    Thy story be run,
    Although it is not accurate.

    Give us this login our hourly summary,
    And forgive us our troll posts,
    As we forgive those who troll our own sites.

    And lead us not to Windows 7,
    But deliver us from unstable repositories,
    For thine is the server,
    The bandwidth, and the compulsive page reloading,
    As long as we have wireless.

    Isn't cheaper to just build a building than to refurbish some of these locations?

    because hydrogen-bomb proof locations are so much cheaper to build yourself! Menards has a kits for sale I hear.

    No, I think you misunderstood GP's comment title.

    It's an reference to one of Kelsey Grammer's many movie roles: Police Detective Brunner in Even Money.

    I don't know why GP poster would make an off-topic reference to an obscure and forgettable movie less than 2 years old. But the Slashdot moves in mysterious ways, and its ways are not our ways.
