- - - - necessary as heat can cause severe damage
      - more common
      - expensive
        
        however cheaper than continuously replacing tech
        
        because of the concentrated computing power, the costs to do so are considerable.
      - temp
        
        24 to 26°C
        
        blown through holes in the floor
  - - - usually more than one
      - drawback of using fuel
      - Together, they can produce a total of 29 megawatt
    - - diesel generators are an additional backup
      - 2 for redunancy
- - - - avoid polutuion where possible
      - licensed companies should be used for disposal
        
        there exists no federal mandate to recycle e-waste
        
        consumers bear the burden of recovery and disposal
    - - sound profing
      - distance datacentre away from residental areas
        
        a factory district would be ideal
        
        higher risk of damaging nature if away from residential areas
    - - trading schemes under which the operator could be primarily responsible for the customer’s emissions,
        
        may not be looked upon favouable
        
        air quality considerations and issues that arise from wetlands and endangered specie
        
        avoiding this criteria will mean less chance of a datacentre being protested
      - will be subjected to taxes
        
        an unavoidable factor
        
        further capital strain on the copmpany
- - - - electricity encompasses
        
        each individual mounted server
        
        cooling system
      - buying the latest, most effecient tech
    - - cost to maintain service and equipment
        
        cost of diesel for generator
        
        cost of electricity from the grid
        
        cost to replace potentially damaged equipment
      - cost to maintain employees
  - - - draw comparisons between server room and datacentre
      - function of small scale
        
        when only running a small scale operation, and is therefore not necessary
        
        where capital is a factor
    - - wholesale
        
        sell data center space in larger capacities than a colocation model
        
        The concept is similar to leasing a warehouse
      - managed hosting
        
        The hardware may be owned by the customer or the provider.
        
        provider operates servers and storage for its customers
      - in house
        
        used by larger companies in the tech industry
        
        size depends on investment
      - colocation
        
        can be sold to enterprises by the rack
        
        Customers still maintain control over their hardware
      - shared hosting
        
        shared server capacity
        
        provides multi-tenant applications
- - - - strive for better/faster servers
      - increase to match market growth
    - - benefits the industry
      - benefits the economy
    - - exponential increase in number of servers
      - predictions for more datacentres
  - - - patches released
      - debugging
      - type of maintenence
        
        hardware
        
        software
    - - latency aka lag
        
        different games display different symptoms
        
        differs based on location
      - avalibility
        
        survivability in a market scenario
        
        determines repeating custumers
        
        downtime
        
        custom hosting solutions
        
        private cloud
        
        managed hosting
        
        colocation
        
        build infrastruture with resilience
      - scalability
        
        new games handling an influx of players
        
        dedicated servers
        
        can meet the fluctuating amount of players
        
        ability to be turned n and off
        
        top tier tech required
      - Speed-to-market
        
        use of on-demand computing and storage infrastructure
        
        to improve the situation
        
        to reduce issues short term
        
        can threaten your competitive advantage
        
        solution
