Cheers! To Data Centers… They Provide The Internet
It takes a massive amount of technology to ‘make’ the internet. Electronic addresses alone require a huge number of switches to route the electric impulses from users to website providers and it’s done so rapidly and fast that we don’t notice the time lag between all the nodes along the way. The first computers were massive affairs as physical switches and relays operated to make the connections. Decades later we have solid state devices that consist of massive numbers of ‘chips’ that do the job but somewere there needs to be a place to put all of the bits and pieces. That’s called a “DATA CENTER”. If you are reading this or otherwise occupied with your computer or cell phone you are using data and that data ie routed by data centers.
