Lokasi & Penampakan Data Center Perusahaan Internet Besar Dunia


Saat ini jumlah penetrasi internet di Indonesia konon sudah mencapai sepertiga populasi. Dan semuanya didominasi oleh mobile internet seiring maraknya penggunaan situs jejaring sosial.

Nah, layanan internet saat ini dioperasikan melalui "komputasi awan" atau Cloud Computing yang memerlukan data center dalam kapasitas yang sangat besar untuk mengatur traffic dan menyimpan data para penggunanya.

Sebagian besar data center berasal di Amerika serikat karena disana undang-undang privasi data tidak ketat dan ada insentif pajak yang menarik. Lalu dimanakah lokasi data center perusahaan-perusahaan internet besar seperti Google, Facebook, dan lain-lain? Berikut ini disajikan beberapa contoh lokasi data center milik perusahaan besar internet yang memiliki data center di banyak lokasi.

1. Google Data Center

Pertarungan internet di Asia semakin ketat. Kondisi ini adalah dampak dari pesatnya pembangunan data center yang berlokasi di Asia oleh berbagai perusahaan. Negara yang berkembang pesat serta ramah investasi seperti Hongkong dan Singapura kerap menjadi pilihan utama. Oleh karena itu Hongkong membangun data center nya di Asia, pertama di Hongkong, Singapura, lalu Taiwan.

  14. With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism
    or copyright violation? My site has a lot of completely unique content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any ways to help stop content from being ripped off? I'd really appreciate it.
