Так выглядит серверный центр обработки данных Facebook в Швеции. As befits a Scandinavian style, everything looks pretty strictly.

Servers need to be cold, so the energy consumption in data centers have always been a nuisance for technology companies. Various companies in their approach to the issue of energy savings, So Google It aims to cut costs by using artificial intelligence, while Microsoft is experimenting with underwater centers. Facebook also made a bid for a simpler solution - suffered servers in a cooler place. I decided that even boast, providing leading media and our portal, in particular the relevant photos.

Имеющий размер 6 football fields, as the key element of the infrastructure Facebook – data center was located in the city of Lulea in northern Sweden, at a distance of a little more than 100 kilometers from the Arctic Circle. The object was created a few years ago, but for Mark Zuckerberg is still reason to be proud(especially, that perfectly fulfills its mission).

„Температура на этом центре не превышает 10 degrees Celsius, so using large fans we produce air circulation, natural cooling thousands of servers, located in the middle ",- Zuckerberg says. Moreover there is also used additional energy sources. "The whole system, on 10% efficient and consumes 40% less energy, than traditional data centers ".

As recognized by the Zuckerberg, in the center of the equipment has been "minimized", everything to work as quickly, насколько это только возможно, и не потребляло слишком много энергии. Old hard drive to destroy this center on site, to protect the privacy of Facebook users. В датацентре работают 150 person, and the number of servers is 25 thousand.

Everything looks very strict, but fans of such a course of aesthetics is not worried. Zuckerberg shared some really quite good photos, depicting a data center in Lulea. You can see them below:
