Earlier this month, Google officially opened its new data center in South Carolina which was first reported during April of 2007 when the company announced its plans to invest $600 million in the project. This data center is one of the four new data center projects announced by Google last year with other locations being Lenoir, North Carolina; Council Bluffs, Iowa and Pryor, Oklahoma.
In his analysis today, Rich Miller of Data Center Knowledge says: “Could this be Google’s version of the two-story approach used by Microsoft in Chicago, with a first story packed with containers and an upper floor using conventional racks? Or might the ‘parking deck’ serve another purpose?”
