With 300 million users, you can imagine that Facebook is becoming quite the data center energy hog.
Good news is that they’re making changes to ensure Facebook is getting more efficient.
They just leased more data space from Fortune Data Centers in San Jose.
Fortune utilizes water-side economizers, environmental monitoring, and hot/cold air containment, which are all staples of an efficient data center.
They’ve signed 4 new leases this year alone, all of which have been to centers on track for LEED gold status.
