Very interesting. Some DCs measure the cost of running at a higher temperature. Examining the cost of purchasing replacement hardware and the strain downtime places on relationships. Having a global presence you can do Smart DC Distribution base on the traffic they receive from the region they can spin down servers at night or during hotter days. I wonder if they reuse the heat(energy) produced.
