Hey guys,
For those who do not know, last week we had a "drop everything and jump on a plane" opportunity. After 2.5 years of asking, we got a 2-hour window to go look around the IT of an NFL stadium, unguided. That "Go" came about 36 hours before the window opened. Then, I got very sick to the point where tasks that would normally take me 90 minutes instead were taking 7 hours. Hence why we had no video last week.
I know it is a bit different, but I want to do more showing folks where IT lives outside of traditional hyper-scale data centers.
The ASK: If you, or someone you know work at a major sports team venue, an airline (servers inside a 787?), an oil rig (this is my #1), or somewhere else cool where servers live, let me know. I look at this as the first draft and hope we can do more in the future.
Cheers,
Patrick
