I disagree with this setup for the following reason: a computer converts all its power to heat. This means it is in essence a heating device. It is more smart to use that heat to heat buildings than to use it to heat seawater. That said, a landbased datacenter that doesn't reuse its wasteheat is even worse. If we look from the perspective of water usage, the submerged datacentre has its merits, as there is no usage of drinking water.
well, underwater would guarantee cool room temperature which is semiconductor friendly. rather than solar and wind, maybe if Microsoft could do underwater current powerplant would be best
How does it interact with the biodiversity it's submerged in ? I mean you put a heating element in a cold environment and life will attract towards it to get heat from this source. Does that degrades the convection of heat from the data center ?
It's simply water cooled which could be done in a regular pool, leave the marine life as it is. Just water cool your existing hardware n avoid creating electrical interference and heat to aquatic life.
Using water to preserve the integrity of a device, that was the genuis part, objects that get too hot, in colder climates and objects too cool in higher climate advantages.
It`s great that idea, I alway think that there is not enything better than applying and using our tecnologies and even improving them with no damaging enviroment
@@RandoHandleSo, if they access more for purpose, how long they should repair for each can of servers? are they repair one of them per month, week or per date?
These data centers wouldn't be lifted up for any repairs or end of life from water again? Would such activities disturb the homes of aquatic life? How far from costal cities these data centers be maintained?
I think it will take a lot more than a few servers underwater to heat up the oceans significantly. Though the impact on marine ecosystems in the immediate surroundings should be closely monitored.

Cooling the data centre wont require much cost also less green footprints

Deep water is a natural cooling system, portable data center but prone to the nature of the sea floor plus, maintenance cost will be super high...
Why cant they create an artificial pool and submerge it in a closed environment instead of submerging it in the sea, which has lots of biodiversity ?
How does it interact with the biodiversity it's submerged in ? I mean you put a heating element in a cold environment and life will attract towards it to get heat from this source. Does that degrades the convection of heat from the data center ?

To help the ocean warm to make the global warming worst.
It is protection from emp&solar activity possibly?

FREE COOLING 🤔 could be a reason?
Does it raise water temperature? I guess still better than burning fuel to run fans.

Absolutely..carbon isnt harmful..or at least lethal..
