Step through the chapel doors, however, and you won’t find any religious iconography or a congregation in prayer. Instead, you’ll find the 25th most powerful supercomputer in the world: the MareNostrum 4." https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/xwjegq/the-worlds-most-beautiful-data-center-is-a-supercomputer-housed-in-a-19th-century-church?utm_campaign=sharebutton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years before I hosted at the Infomart building, I hosted GT in a basement data center below a Piñata factory, in Phoenix. They had a balcony all the way around the two floors of the factory and they would hang the piñatas out there to dry. It was festive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
