Will Silicon Valley Run Out of Data Center Space?

1sockchuck writes "With capital scarce, data center developers are prioritizing projects in northern Virginia, where the Obama stimulus plan and federal shift to cloud computing are likely to boost data center demand from government agencies. This is forcing them to delay or scale back large projects in Santa Clara, setting the stage for a supply/demand imbalance in Silicon Valley, particularly for large space requirements. One potential mitigating factor: some currently occupied data center space could become available through the failure of venture-backed startups."

a supply/demand imbalance

If there's demand, someone will supply it. If the demand is for unrealistically cheap service, then that's not real demand.
