Its been a while i had been thinking about this.Being a village guy and engaged in setting up Data Center’s – iam able to find some striking similarities between best of both worlds.
- Both of the businesses are directly proportional to the Real Estate – The more the data / chicken’s you want to host the more you need the real estate space.While chickens need 0.9 Sq.ft per bird , data is measured in the number of servers you can squeeze in a 1U ( 1.75 Inch ) space of a rack..!
- Thermodynamics – Its all about protecting the inmates with right environmental conditions. Datacenters need 21-23c of temprature and 45-55% RH of Humidity , while the environmental conitions in a poultry farm needs to be warmer by 33-38c and air needs to be dry with lower RH of Humidity.
- Power Factor – Both of them consumes electricity a lot , data center emits power as heat energy and poultry inhales heat generated from light bulbs. The cost factor of power in both the businesss is about 30%
- Dependency on External Feed’s - Data Centers are purely dependent on the ISP connectivity ans so are the Chickens for thier feed manufaturer’s. Crticality of situations araise when there is a “Downtime” for the external feeds..!
- Fatter you Grow , Fatter the Money – While chickens weigh more and data grows bigger , the bigger the revenue we get..!
