The Internet at home – a tour of Equinix August 27, 2006

Posted by Al in : interesting,Internet,video , trackback

This is quite a groovy video as it’s nice to see the back end of the Internet, and at Equinix 200 different networks come together with an awful lot of hosting to make quite a big chunk of the Internet live. This video shows the power supply, and it’s backup, as well as the way different racks are laid out and kept running. Mind you I use 1and1.co.uk (who are truly excellent in both reliability and in their customer service) and they have this nifty Flash video to show off their centre.
