I would like to know why Google had to open a datacenter in that specific region. It gets incredibly hot and humid.

- jrockway 15y agoPresumably to reduce latency for nearby users. People in warm climates deserve fast Google results too! :)
- hendzen 15y agoThe amortized CAPEX (cost of building the data center) is still greater than the OPEX (cost of keeping it running). If Google can find cheap land and labor, heat might be irrelevant.
