[AusNOG] RISK: Equinix SY2 (SY1?) - Mascot Towers

[Bevan Slattery]

Any opportunity to throw in a Dukes of Hazard reference (and Mike in his “Daisy Duke” short shorts) on this list is fine with me 😊

Mumble, mumble (something about Mike trolling in the both the original Internet and bridge sense.)

If it was the 400kw of solar we installed on the roof back in the day wouldn’t work too well would it? :)

At its closest it’s about 40m from the edge so unless you’ve got a ramp on Bolte to get over the concrete wall and go all Dukes of Hazard REAL hard in the three lanes you have to cross and get there and cross the wall, go airborne over the neighbours property, then over the access/cark park to get to the building, I reckon you’d deserve a medal.

So the answer is “no” :)

Speaking of which,..

Isn’t NextDC M1 right underneath a major bridge? ;-)

Cheers,  Mike.

This is interesting information, thanks for thinking outside the square Skeeve, it’s probably something most people never considered but it could be a potential issue.

Hi all,

Most people would have heard about the Mascot building that had to be evacuated on Friday evening.

Until recently lived in Mascot and I realised that it was a building next to Equinix SY2.

It may not be obvious, but this building, which is of risk enough that everyone has been evacuated, actually, if it fell in the worst way possible (very unlikely), it would hit Equinix SY2.

I've created a video which gives some perspective of the situation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq1whCsf0rc

I also attended the site to verify the perspective.

Equinix people were onsite Friday night doing risk assessments - but I've not seen any public comment from them about it and there are no notifications in the portal or email alerts about it.

Here is the video<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrJhkq3wPa4> of me onsite at the location. I will put up some pictures later.
