Inside Hetzner’s data centre

I must say.... those cables give me a bit of a boner
I had four computers in my old computer room at home, and there were wires all over the place. No surprise Hetzner is German - "No loose or untidy wires, Herr Landers" :)
 
Very impressive setup from them...

Would not really call it massively secure, but then I have different standards when it comes to DC's :)
 
Nice. Would love to do a site visit and see how it compares with MTN, Vodacom, MWeb and RSAWeb's; was pretty impressed with those.
 
Cool article. How much goes into keeping those rooms cool?

and if you gooi a klip pretty hard from the Hetzner DC, you hit the R1.6 billion ultra secure Standard Bank white elephant.... eeeerm, Data Centre.:p

If Hetzner would bring Local dedicated hosting pricing in line with their DE offerings, i would take a rack or 2
 
Looks nice, l wonder if they user interconnect for the wiring looks like the sort of quality they put out.
 
nothing new here. We've been having world class for years now with internet solutions.

The actual building construction is pretty flimsy if you ask me. I would prefer 50cm thick steel reinforced concreted structures for starters.

Last (new) DC I toured was worse than Fort Knox. Even had to leave cellphones at security kiosk.
 
Not sure if a actually may say this... But i have been in there. Not that cold due to the "free cooling" like the MTN Data Centers I have been in. And very quite...
 
So before this where was their old local data center btw?
