Sustainability at the Heart of Massive European IT Facility
Microsoft has recently opened a mega data centre near Dublin - Ireland,its largest facility outside the United States. But interestingly, the company’s primary business decisions taken in the process of designing and building the massive structure were based on smart growth, security, and environmental sustainability. A growing demand for e-business services? An increasing need for wireless communication? Improved online office functionality, and faster video and music downloads? Microsoft is an IT leader that is investing in the infrastructure needed to support the evolving needs and growth of the services that consumers and businesses are demanding today. By investing in this long-term business approach Microsoft is creating a thoughtful and methodical way to ensure they are doing the right thing for their business, shareholders, and the environment.
