Facebook's Server Room, Penthouse Cooling Caught On Video

Posted by timothy on from the sounds-scandalous dept.

The tours, conducted by Facebook Director of Datacenter Engineering Jay Park, showcase the Open Compute Project designs for servers, UPS units and two-tier 'penthouse' cooling system design."

    Sadly, the video of Facebook's massive server array was not hosted on facebook's massive server array. Instead, it was hosted on a P3 600mhz with a rockin SCSI-II hard drive. Yay, progress.
