Will (@cocoasulphur) and I wanted to try something new around with this video. I usually don't put myself this much on camera, especially in remote locations so I would love to know what you think of these style of informative "deep dives" :). Thanks everyone for watching. What should I do a deep dive of next? 🤔🤔
My first tech job was debugging newly built servers for AWS. I hated that job, but it was a good experience to understand what the cloud was. We only produced and debugged. We didn't actually deploy like this vertical shop. It's very cool to see!
@destinydestroyers5284 It was like being in prison for 12 hours a day. 1. You had to go through 2 sets of medal detect or's to get in so you couldn't have headphones/ earbuds while working alone all day. 2. There are thousands of servers, and they are LOUD, so just chhhhhhhhhhhhh so loud you have to yell to communicate sucked. They did provide the little orange foam ear plugs, but it would have been nice to bring my own pair of over the ear ones for like a gun range. 3. Paid like crap, made 22 dollars an hour to do a job the most could not. 4. We were not allowed to access the internet at all. So all troubleshooting had to be figured out and then documented on an internal SharePoint site that no one updated, so it was normally just figuring it out for yourself, which honestly waste their time as well. 5. My boss was a one and done kind of guy. He fired people left and right, so people were scared to ask questions. 6. A lot of mandatory overtime. 7. The desk we had was an awkward height. They were too tall for a sitting desk and too short standing, so you were always in an awkward position, causing back pain. 8. Sort of a part two to 7. We didn't have chairs. We had stools, which were very hard and hurt you butt after a few hours. Personally, did not help my back, having no support for a 12-hour shift. The nail in the coffin was that all the stool were broken, so they did not adjust up and down. They permanently sat at the lowest setting, making the awkward height desk hurt out back more. 9. The final issue was a one time expirence that caused me to leave the state and move to Washington. We had a mandatory OT day one week(we will call this week 1) and an unpaid building closure the following week (we will call this week 2). Week 1 we were working the mandatory day of OT when we got an email from our boss saying they will not be recording our time for the week and be recording week 1's OT to be paid on Week 2's paycheck. That meant instead of getting overtime pay on week 1, we would get normal pay on Week 1 and normal pay for Week 2, there for them saving a hundred bucks or so per employee. This is obviously illegal, so I was pissed and forwarded the email to the labor department in Kentucky, the state I lived in at the time. I got a reply from the state, saying something along the lines of "yes this is illegal, however the difference in pay for you (me) is only around 100 dollars, and is not of high enough value to pursue a law suit. In order for the state to take action, you would have to pool other employees into a lawsuit to make it a substantial amount." Again, they said it better, but I don't remember the exact wording. Within a month and a half, I sold my house, took a new job 3000 miles away, and moved to Seattle. No regrets. Note: I wrote this on my phone and it's hard to proof read, sorry for any issues.

Man, I've been digging deep and learning a lot lately about data centers, and I was searching for any footage of a data center with an informative video. Then, out of nowhere, you show up and deliver exactly that. You're absolutely the best on TH-cam!
This was really cool to see, especially on what OVHCloud operations look like (obviously only at the surface level). I work for a cloud provider at a colocation data center, and I have been to countless locations by multiple ISP providers. Sometimes the infrastructure is extremely disappointing, and sometimes the infrastructure amazes you. Especially when it comes to security and power availability. Awesome video.
I watched a tour of an AWS (or maybe Google) datacenter and they no joke had a security guard watching them at ALL times even though both people in the video were company employees! Apparently company policy is for all guests in the datacenter to be escorted by a guard at all times.
Well this explains everything I needed to know about OVH. I acquired a company that had servers there and I couldn't get out of there fast enough - zero hardware support, days to get an answer on a simple billing ticket (if they even bothered responding at all), insane contract period pricing, and ridiculously expensive IP addresses. So I just bought my own hardware and colo in a data center.
Guys the big ones of technology and even those who only want security service, do not put servers in OVH, trust me! You can see who is the biggest provider in the world that almost no one knows and you have understood everything

Can you edit this into a longer 2nd-channel type video where you just cover the visit to their facility in-depth, without the high level explainers? Would live to see the rest of the footage from your visit. Thanks!
I have a theory Google is running out of storage! I mean, obviously I’m not going into it in the comment section. But it would make sense! Not to mention, everyone has a device and 4K camera.
Didn't watch the whole video but I doubt the author mentioned that hard drives actually fail less often when a room is hot, so it pays to keep the server room a bit hot.
OVH? Omg...They are good for the retail market without high expectations. When it comes to xscale things change and it’s not the datacenters you see...
Grafana is great for reporting from tons load of data. Very easy to create your own dashboards with it. Too bad they didn't say which Hypervisor they're using which I can understand due to privacy reasons. Seems they embrace open source I wouldn't be surprised if they are using Qemu / KVM. Myself personally and professionally I use ProxMox which is based on Debian with Qemu / KVM installed. Personally not sure why they didn't want to show the merits from Grafana since it's standard stuff at the data center. Probably they didn't want to show any identifiable host names which can be blurred out.
I disagree on what Cloud Computing is. Cloud computing is simply renting someone else's computer to do work. Why make it sound like it's something so fancy and "innovative".

@@destinydestroyers5284 bro have you ever done troubleshooting on a server lmao
might be the only jobs left with robots and AI here.
If you’ve worked on it, you’ll have seen that their servers are not on OVH
I have been an OVH customer for years and they are by far the best (and cheapest) for virtual servers. So cool to finally see inside one of the DCs!
Cheapest? You have not met Hetzner then.
@@weiSane Should have mentioned I am using OVH's London DC - Pretty sure they are still the cheapest for UK.
@@weiSane yeah, hetzner is cheaper (most of the time), but personally i'd still prefer ovh

Bro going to explore a data center just for us to learn Mad Respect 👏👏
Super cool to see these huge data centers. Never thought about how intense the security in these places would be!
Brilliant video and interesting insight into the workings of OVH! It's cool to see what it looks like in the datacentre itself today.
Man congratulations! you've made it! your videos are always interesting as a CS student I hope I can be a cool programmer like you!
crazy video, amazingly explained. your shorts got me into your channel but these long form videos are just 10 10. keep going man!
Actually insane to see the scope of these facilities
You would know with all the footage

Bro literally amazed of traveling principles that data undergone 😮😮
ooh, my God!! this is so incredible
Very helpful to know what is the data center looks like !! Montreal amazing!
I watched a tour of an AWS (or maybe Google) datacenter and they no joke had a security guard watching them at ALL times even though both people in the video were company employees! Apparently company policy is for all guests in the datacenter to be escorted by a guard at all times.
Exactly, it’s another world. Forget the ones you saw in this video
Amazing video! keep going and helping other programers
Oh, so this is where my website, that i purchased from OVH is hosted. Cool :w

OVH datacenters are lit 🔥
90,000 servers?! 😱 This data center tour feels like stepping into the brain of the internet!
Wow awesome video Lewis!!! Kind of cool that they use Grafana to monitor everything at that scale.
First time here, and I loved this. Thanks for sharing ❤
i hope you continue making more videos like this, this is so cool.
great video format!
Love this type of content!
Guys the big ones of technology and even those who only want security service, do not put servers in OVH, trust me!

cool! Anatomy of a cloud!
They’re planning on building two data centres in my town. One of them is planning to use all the heating generated to heat a hotel.
Cool video! and super cool to see where i work on TH-cam. Great job!!
I have a theory Google is running out of storage! I mean, obviously I’m not going into it in the comment section. But it would make sense! Not to mention, everyone has a device and 4K camera.
NOT fully vertically integrated. They don't make RAM - they don't make SDD's - they don't make power supplies, and on and on..
Very cool video thank you for teaching us
Very interesting!
bro went outside for our benefit 🙏
The cloud aka “someone else’s server”
Nice Content!
So early I may be living in the data center
You stole my hard drive
Me asf: pulls out 1 lan cabel and be like: GO AND FIND THE MISSING ONE 😂😂😂
You should ask OVH where their data is for their clients who lost it all in their DC fire.
Didn't watch the whole video but I doubt the author mentioned that hard drives actually fail less often when a room is hot, so it pays to keep the server room a bit hot.
bro glazed himself with that 10x programmer bs🤣🤣
NICE EDIT
What kind of certification should I have to work in a datacenter like this?
Just a basic I.T certificate from a professionnal school

Nice
Check your mail
Mainframe terminals are not computers.
Now don’t make it burn down haha
why in the hell do they need the radiators with a body of water nearby they can just use a heat exchanger???? dump the heat in that 40 degree water
Radiators serve as a way to cool the room (In summer) and heat the room (in winter), they do use heat exchanger plates
Ohh it wasn't exploded
I disagree on what Cloud Computing is.
Cloud computing is simply renting someone else's computer to do work. Why make it sound like it's something so fancy and "innovative".
damn i hate the "cloud"
I’m a 12x developer because I use tabs. I also assign my own metrics because it’s more efficient. Don’t even question me because you’re 1x.
ALERT!
Your understanding (or likely explanation) of cloud computing and AI compute are terribly conflated. 90% of all servers have NO GPUS at at all.
ovh nah hard pass
first
you have little idea on what your on about
JUST STUPID MARKETING
DAY 3 OF asking @CodingWithLewis to make a css tutorial ( not a beginner tutorial)
Then why does OVH sucks so much. Their control panel can't even load up
Control panel != backend servers :)
