I am fairly sure remote working and hybrid working are here to stay.
Which means the commercial real estate market is going to shift with more and more “co-working” spaces being created.
One thing I wonder is if they will simply turn one office room into a co-low space - where it’s easier to drive to, it’s simpler to manage. Because cloud first is a rubbish solution for most people - just have a server with a TB of disk and most companies can live on that happily running away in the corner.
And there might be a growth for companies that have expertise in the basics of racks and HVACs just to run that room for them.
- bpye 2y agoI’m sure I’ve heard of this somewhere - where someone is hosting out of a coworking space’s server room - but of course cannot recall where. It’s not surprising I guess, office buildings often(?) have one or multiple server rooms, backup power or generators, maybe even redundant networking.

- consteval 2y agoThe issue is it's pretty hard to do because we have high standards when it comes to putting humans in living spaces. This isn't true though for computers. It's trivial (ish...) to turn an office floor into a datacenter. I know because that's what the company I worked for did. It's nice, because our servers are literally an elevator ride away.
