[quote:Anonymous Coward 317023:MV8xNTY4OTIxXzI1OTM0MjU4XzIwODk1RkJG] [quote:N3m3s1s] My Guess, they are giving Google the business. http://www.datacenterknowledge.com/archives/2011/07/18/google-buying-land-for-future-data-centers/ Google continues to invest heavily in its Internet infrastructure in the second quarter of 2011, recording capital expenditures (CapEx) of $917 million. Significantly, Google said some of the spending was for related to “land and building purchases” along with the usual data centers, servers, and networking equipment. While spending on buildings could be tied to Google’s expansion of its office space, vacant and purchases most likely reflect future sites for data centers. Isn't it a wonderful world.
