+Roenie It's not just someone using a chopped-off finger. You can also trick a normal fingerprint reader by getting someone's fingerprint and using that directly. A high-quality reader won't be that easy to trick, but it is still doable with a little effort. Recreating the bloodflow is a bit more difficult. And I don't see your point about it being a bad place to work at. Because they are trying to keep people who don't work there out? I'd be more worried if the security was lax. This is a high security area, the hardware in there is worth a LOT and the information stored there probably even more...

He keeps saying "The IT" like it's a physical, tangible object instead of a concept or idea. They couldn't have possibly used the words Server Room or Network Closet? I didn't really learn anything from this video. How many Xeon cores are each blade server running? Is the overall memory for the building up to 1TB? What kind of virtualized environments were they running? If so, how many clients do each terminal server host? What is the memory/bandwidth load for average customer use? Honestly, the most interesting part of this video was the 30-40sec demonstrating the security protocols in place. I love these kinds of videos but I'd have liked it to be hosted by one of the Network Engineers, not some PR rep.

Is a very stressful environment for professionals that work in those data centers and the top of that there is no room for failure.
@FlesHBoX
@FlesHBoX 8 лет назад
+Emmerson Motta This is why there are layers of redundancy on top of layers of redundancy, on to of layers of redundancy. Sorry to sound redundant. I didn't mean to say things over and over and over.
@emmersonmotta994
@emmersonmotta994 8 лет назад
Fully S0chan agree redundancy is very expensive and companies are more then happy with just one layer.
@FlesHBoX
@FlesHBoX 8 лет назад
S0chan Not sure I agree with you there. Every server has built in redundancy. It's almost impossible to set up an IT infrastructure with no redundancy, both physical and logical. It is also not at all uncommon to see those systems with built in redundancy, to be backed up by redundant physical systems in failover pairs, or even clusters. This is even more true in European countries where HA Pair redundancy is very commonly split between separate sites. Our product has an entire functionality that makes wide area redundancy possible between HA pairs, and they are heavily utilized in Europe. It is very very rare for me to see a system that doesn't have multi-head redundancy capabilities, and the entire enterprise storage industry is built on top of redundancy and being able to fail over. Redundancy technologies are some of the biggest investment areas in replacing technology. So while you are correct that it is expensive, that is just part of the cost you calculate when purchasing IT assets, and any company that doesn't invest in redundancy just doesn't value their data and IT infrastructure because they haven't had the unfortunate experience of a critical failure.
@fransezomer
@fransezomer 8 лет назад
+S0chan redundancy is based upon the required uptime of a service or an agreed SLA. Required investments scale up with the required uptime. ie. Your computer at home is not the same computer as a server in a data center, even if they have the same performance specs. A server could be 10 times more expensive as different/more expensive parts with a higher MTBF are used and/or were implemented redundantly.
@FlesHBoX
@FlesHBoX 8 лет назад
For reference, the company I work for advertizes a "5 9's" uptime, meaning 99.999% uptime. This is accomplished via massive redundancy technologies built in across the board.

+derLPMaxe It would be a supreme waste to spend that kind of money on infrastructure and use it to play games, and since they most likely are running *nix natively and other OSes through virtualization, you would likely get sub-par performance out of them. Not to mention, no real graphics sub systems, even if they are using GPU compute, those systems are not really configured for gaming.

It doesn't really look like a high tech DC... allthough datacenters do not have to look modern to be state of the art. What I did not see in the vid, are secured cages. A lot of DC have metal cages and visual obstructions on the tech floor to fence important machines and data from curious people or even to provide different levels of access for a customer. Such infra is required for some businesses, like financial institutions.

@fransezomer
@fransezomer 8 лет назад
+Herve Shango 100 % True! Google is building a new datacenter in Groningen, here in The Netherlands. It is 3 football fields big. This is a small DC to any standard. I have been working in IT for almost 20 years now and as VP-IT for an e-commerce fulfillment company I only sometimes visit DCs, thank God! As these are the least exciting element of my work to me. It is noisy (much noisier usually then in this video!), windy and boring as hell. It is just racks and racks of computers and a few people that un/install servers, connect cables, install OSs and do some pre-config stuff. Nothing fancy or groundbreaking happening there. As soon as a server has been installed, it is usually configured remotely by an engineer, like with Google from Mountainview - California. The guy in the video who was doing the tour was obviously a mere salesman, dropping the same fancy names like 10 times. The true interesting tech facts of a DC were not mentioned, like the difference between storage at home (ie. an external HDD- 4TB, ~130 US$) versus the size of a Professional 640 GB Dell Storage unit (US $15.000,-, that weighs ~ 30 Kg, and measures 1 by 1 by 1 meter! When he was explaining the redundancy in power supplies, he forgot to mention that each individual rack usually has at least 1 UPS-power supply for itself, on which the rack is able to run for a few hours independently in case of a power failure. He could also hvae mentioned that most DCs have 1 or more satellite DCs at different locations where customers could run a mirrored architecture if required, just in case an entire DC is out because of a calamity. He could have said something about the fire protection/measures at DCs which is usually pretty impressive to see. etc, etc. Also the location of DCs is sometimes almost laughable. A while ago I worked in Geneva, Switzerland and found a huge Datacenter in the basement of the Movenpick Hotel right next to the Geneva Airport! Or in Belgium where the DC for KPN/Orange telephone company was located in a huge barn in the middle of a forest, crazy! Maybe Computerfile should do another visit and get a true insight of a DC.

+PhazonSouffle At the 16MW figure the other guy mentioned, it would cost them roughly 2880 USD (give or take 1000 depending on where it's located) per hour to run. This amounts to around $25,228,800 a year. Of course, I'm using consumer prices for the US that I found online. These people are located in the UK, so their prices likely differ. They might also get discounts or something related. Also, you have to keep in mind that having servers hosted at a data center is VERY expensive to the client. They are probably making a LOT more than their power costs yearly.

Ugh. I don't know why but the word IT irritates me.

+ipullstuffapart yeah i guess. I just hate the umbrella term IT. It doesn't really describe anything now. Its like saying there is weather outside. Well yeah of course there is but is it sunny rainy etc.

I get that though because they are still applications at the end of the day.

I once was responsible for the design and implementation of a server NOC.Went all out for redundancy - redundant power out the wazoo. It's undoing, even though I'd recommended it was not hosting a DNS zone copy. Oops.

"Medical research?" "H.R. management?" "Economics research?" "Academic research"? Then why all the high security?

Serious, a power outage that takes down a data center? How long must this have lasted? 24 hours or so? I know only of data centers that have their own support batteries which need to last until a big diesel generator has started up, and then it will all run independently, for as long as the diesel fuel lasts (or when it gets constantly refilled, potentially indefinitely). Some of the more modern facilities are also equipped with solar panels on the roof that can support part of the needed power (all going through huge battery buffers, of course). Others have hydrogen fuel cells. I don't believe that a power outage would easily take down a data center that's well built. But then, you guys also drive on the wrong side of the road, so anything might be possible ;-)
