Under the sea, Microsoft tests a datacenter that’s quick to deploy, could provide internet connectivity for years - Stories

Microsoft are looking at putting datacenters under the ocean, which sounds like a really good idea to cool them but I can’t help but think a couple decades from now it’s going to start causing us problems

Considering all the volcanoes and heat vents down there, I doubt a data center is going to tip any scales.

Realistically probably not and as people have pointed out it's better than them doing it into the air less efficiently but my point was not about a single data center it was more if it caught on and we started dumping thousands of these things in the ocean
