The Data Center Powering the Super Bowl
- dshankar 16y agoAs a result of centralizing the servers, everything in the stadium now operates on one system and one network Awesome! So you mean there is now one single Point of Failure? Brilliant.
- sokoloff 16y agoThe technology throughout the 3 million square-foot facility is connected by 250 miles of fiber optic cable, 6 million feet of copper wiring and 70 wiring closets Argh. Why the pointless adjacent use of two different measures of length? 250 miles of fiber and 1100 miles of copper wiring would have been more communicative, IMO.
- jonursenbach 16y ago"6 million feet of copper wiring" sounds a lot more impressive than "1100 miles of copper wiring".
- missinlnk 16y agoWell then wouldn't 1.3 million feet of fiber sound more impressive than 250 miles?
- joezydeco 16y ago...all to deliver an entertainment product. Amazing.
- tzs 16y agoThe Cowboys have a 100-terabyte storage area network to hold the data supporting the world’s largest domed stadium I remember when domed stadiums were supported by steel beams and reinforced concrete pillars. I feel old.
