Google and Microsoft plan data centres

Quote:

The internet arms race between Google and Microsoft took a new twist on Friday as the companies announced plans to spend more than $1bn between them on new data centres to handle future rapid growth in online traffic.

Google said it would spend $600m to build a new site to house a server farm in Lenoir, a small town in North Carolina, while Microsoft unveiled plans for a $550m facility in San Antonio, Texas.

WOW $600m to build a new site!

They arent working together, they are competing.

It's far bigger than that. They are dumping cash into every region in the US that has favorable energy prices, climate, and cheap land that is anywhere near dark fiber.

Think ~100 new servers an hour coming up 24x7 for the next 2 years.
