Do they also have containerized UPSs, generators, cooling capacity? Or do they dock the containers along a services spine?

I’m kinda surprised they’re being used - they were a solution to nobody’s problem (except, perhaps, the US Army) when they came onto the scene in the early 2000’s.

They never really caught on in private enterprise. Lots of hype, lots of articles and headlines in the parts of the tech press that regurgitate vendor press releases, virtually nothing actually sold.

Tier5 in Adelaide tried something similar with per-customer modules indoors made out of refrigeration panels.

It’ll be interesting to see how this venture pans out.
