Re: an over-the-top data center

Speaking as a Datacenter Manager who (believe it or not) at one time was an 
Art Director, I have to say that the "ambience" in those photographs, in 
the form of fog, odd/colored lighting, etc. was certainly  created at the 
time of the photo shoot by an Art Director ... with delusions (illusions) 
of grandeur in mind. I imagine that were any of us to visit the site in 
question on a normal working day we'd find no such special effects and it 
would look, other than the granite walls, not too different from any other 
datacenter, or NOC.
