On a trail hike yesterday, I met someone who helps lead the buildout of data centers for one of the top US tech companies.
I took the opportunity to mention the announcement to build data centers in Vancouver.
He raised his eyebrow, citing the issue with city data centers is obviously power availability & space, but even more annoying - regulations for city buildings.
That said, he said there could be viable data centers for cities under the right conditions.
What are the chances of Vancouver centers being a success?
