Building madman

Chapter 762 Server Site Selection

"Go to Mount Everest, drill a hole in it, and move the server over. It happens that Nanyun has optical cables, and Nanyang also needs to connect to the main server. How about doing two things with one stone?"

Tao 14 heard the words and thought about it carefully.

"The temperature of Mount Everest is minus 40 or 50 degrees. It is definitely feasible to dig a cave and use the temperature to dissipate heat.

"The snow has very low thermal conductivity and has a thermal insulation effect. The engineering volume of burying optical cables is much simpler than that of the North Pole."

"In addition, the Arctic is prone to polar storms, so Dao Si is reluctant to stay there to raise fish. Although Everest also has natural disasters, as long as the geography is well explored, the staff can hide in caves during their rotation.

"It's just, how do our people get up?"

"Helicopter!"

Ge Xiaotian was a little surprised."Are you stupid?"

"Which kind of helicopter? The maximum ceiling of the improved Mi26 is only 520. Other medium and light models crash in minutes when encountering valley convection winds. The noise generated by helicopters is also very likely to cause avalanches, in case. There are climbers..."

"Then airborne!"

"Our large transport aircraft can indeed fly over Mount Everest, but... the personnel in charge of the server are almost all hackers from the Red Eagle Alliance. Do you expect that group of tech houses who drool at comics all day to skydive? I'm afraid it's not planted in the snow nest. radish."

"..."

"There is also power supply. In such a remote place, the altitude is so high that it is impossible to build solar power plants. However, even if the Nanyun Lancang River hydropower is used, who can guarantee that the transmission line so far will not be man-made or affected by nature? Destruction? Once the power goes out and repairs are troublesome, the loss caused by the shutdown may cost hundreds of millions."

"..."

Ge Xiaotian felt that Dao Fourteen was possessed by God today.

However, after meditation alone for a while, he felt that setting the server on Mount Everest had a more important problem.

Overseas, supercomputers are composed of thousands of processors and corresponding memory. They are mainly used for calculations. They are all treasures. They are only used occasionally. It is impossible to use them as servers at all, because the excess performance is pure waste.

The server is just a large computer used for storage and data exchange. It does not need powerful computing power, and only needs to be cooled.

And Tiancheng Server is a "supercomputer" developed by itself in accordance with the needs of the enterprise.

For example, a GIS system stores geographic information collected by work units in various regions, and who reads it with whom, but it can also integrate these data, perform modeling and rendering, and compose virtual communities, cities, and even Dongshan according to reality. Northland is convenient for Tiancheng development.

To make it work normally, it will definitely require thousands of processors to perform distributed operations, and then input the results into the core for integration, and finally generate the desired city model.

Therefore, while it has super computing power, it also has server functions, which leads to comprehensive waste heat, which is indeed far more than pure overseas servers.

However, because it is so powerful, it represents China's top technology power, does the superior allow Tiancheng to move the server?

If you move to Mount Everest and are learned by some overseas forces that the other party wants to blow up or snatch it, how should you protect it?

You know, Tiancheng Chamber of Commerce has 30,000 or 40,000 enterprise servers, tens of millions of smart card users, and hundreds of millions of users of SG devices, all of which are connected to these nine super servers.

If the latter is destroyed or stolen, the device in the user’s hands is equivalent to losing the “firewall” and “antivirus software”. Even if it can be used, it will soon be used by hackers to steal funds and steal corporate data. , Tampering with corporate data, leaking personal information...

The consequences are comparable to the collapse of the sky.

In another time and space, Bingxiong and North America almost fought to snatch Google's overseas servers.

"You don't have any good suggestions?"

"Using solar power plants and building a cold storage that is a restricted area."

"Grass, it's so simple, do you still have to ask me? Just withdraw funds and do it directly."

"At present, there are nine super servers. With the increase of users, the rise of the manufacturing industry, and the emergence of new industries one after another, 21 servers will be added this year, and will continue to increase next year. If you follow the 50 According to comprehensive calculations, the area of ​​solar photovoltaic panels is comparable to Sancha Township, about 50 square kilometers, or 75,000 acres, plus the area occupied by servers and staff’s living District, where shall we find such a large land?"

"That's right, this thing cannot be placed in Neoblas..."

Ge Xiaotian was taken aback for a moment, "How is the desert?"

"I have considered that the light intensity is conducive to solar power generation. The high temperature during the day can also be used for thermal power generation. At night, the temperature is reduced, and an energy-saving cooling system can be created. The three-in-one auxiliary cold storage can save a lot of money. But according to our way The progress of the westward project may delay the erection of 21 servers, which will delay the development of the industry chain, and you will lose tens of billions."

"Then I ask you, if you have to install the server on Mount Everest, how much does it cost?"

"The development of high-altitude construction equipment, the development of high-altitude mountain helicopters, the development of personal high-altitude oxygen supply devices...Comprehensive calculations, together with employee salaries, and building employee residences, will cost almost tens of billions."

"Then the desert, it happens to attract talents to the Northwest for development. As for the slow progress of the project all the way to the west, the construction of 21 servers is delayed... You go first, set up a temporary airport, and transport the servers and construction materials by air, anyway. The air transport aircraft of China is durable, even if it falls apart, the server will be intact, and the big deal will be a Russian-style landing in the desert."

"What about the staff and I?"

"You wear your parachute and follow the plane, the staff will fly directly to Ulu City and take the car."

"..."

"Go ahead."

"..."

All the nine super servers have backup machines. As long as the power plant is built, the energy-saving cooling system and the cold storage are completed, the backup machines can be moved, and then started, transferred the main server authority, and finally left the nine servers in East Lake Shipped as a backup machine, things can be done.

The most important thing is that, in this way, there is no need to wait for the all the way to the west project, the cold storage is built in advance, 21 servers can be put into use immediately, and there is no need to lose money...

"Unfortunately, I can't make a hole for Mount Everest... Hey? Fourteen, why haven't you left?"

"Boss, it's night."

"It's okay, it's cool at night over there."

"It's winter now."

"There is still winter in the desert?"

"What do you think? The sand has a small heat capacity and fast heat dissipation. It is minus 20 or 30 degrees at night in winter."

"Sure enough, it's a good place to cool down the server. Go ahead."

"..."

"Time is money, we Tiancheng pay attention to efficiency... Right, run, Yao Er Yao... Hey? Fifteen, why did you run?"

"Boss, I feel that instead of waiting in trepidation, I don't know where I will be delivered, it's better to go to the desert in advance..."

"..."

Ge Xiaotian looked behind him, "Whose turn is it?"

"Boss, it's me."

"eleven?"

"Yes, boss, after parachuting, I walked back from Nanyue!"

"How about twelve?"

"You let him go to the Antarctic on foot. It is estimated that he will have already swam to Christmas Island..."

"Don't bullshit."

"He went to the rubber plantation to replace the big brother, and the big brother is going to return to the Aerospace Department to accelerate the development of the touch-screen version of the smart card."

"It's time to speed up. Everyone's smartphones equipped with Symbian system are already riding on our face. If we don't fight back, it's a bit unreasonable.

"No, the main reason is that Motorola launched the A760 equipped with JAVA technology to enter the smartphone market."

"Not WM? WinMobile?"

"No, and BlackBerry launched BlackBerryOS."

"How's the sales?"

"In North America, the market share of ios has been compressed to 12%, Saipan has risen from 35% to 45%, Motorola equipped with the jave system has soared to 14%, Blackberry has risen to 26%, and other shares have 3%. There is a four-part world, there will be competition, there will be development, and they cannot be allowed to continue like this."

"Not for us?"

"SGpad is not a smartphone, nor a computer, it is a game console."

"Well, there is no need for a smart card in North America, what about the game console market?"

"Nintendo’s newly released GBA handheld and the NGC game console with an investment of 3 billion Franklin have all encountered Waterloo, and announced the suspension of production and accelerated the development of the touch-screen handheld NDS. Soft and Micro released the first-generation Xbox two weeks ahead of schedule. Unfortunately, Sales are bleak, and so is Sony’s PlayStation2... And SGpad, through regular channels and Holden channels, has sold more than 100 million in North America. Some people have discovered that Tianchuang consoles can use SGpad as a display. Recently, sales of Tianchuang consoles have skyrocketed. A bit."

"It's time to try out the firepower of those three games."

"Which will be launched first?"

"It must be playable and compatible with the characteristics of Tianchuang's mainframe. However, it is necessary to declare to the public that some consumers complain that creating items in the background is too boring and want to interact. In order to satisfy customers, it is important to give up celebrating the Spring Festival. During the festival, we worked overtime and launched the pixel interactive system. Don’t look at its rough style, but we did use our heart.

"Mod?"

"Put a batch of Tianyu's existing mods, such as the integrated dragon series NPC and the Chenghai 3C map produced by the steampunk authorized NPC. Remember, the public copyright is ours, but the game is not made by us, it is the customer. In addition, we warn all Users, the Tianchuang console is not a game console, it is a server, and if the game is burned out, there is no warranty."

"You are really dark enough."

"Ok?"

"I mean, you are really good enough."

"Ok."

Ge Xiaotian was particularly useful, and walked back to Gejiacun with his back on his back, feeling a little bit emotional.

"Black Mountain, Dragon Sky, Ninja, Huo Dun, Sanctuary, Rubber Garden, SGpad disguised as a game console, home game console disguised as a Skytron console...I have always felt like a villain behind the scenes recently."
