Did you ever wonder what it took to build a datacenter? There’s an interesting company out there called Digital Reality Trust. They build and retrofit datacenter for a living. Their retrofit service is pretty interesting. They basically take an existing building and convert it into a datacenter. They took some pictures of the progression of one of their most recent projects and it’s interesting to see what happens when. They’ve got the retrofit down to a science. This one took just 26 weeks and came in under budget. Not bad for something that usually takes at least twice as long for most companies.
