Nice video -- I turned off the sound as it was so pointless.... images themselves are great though

I agree that the sound was a bit useless throughout parts of it: mindless banter. I was impressed by the facility itself though.

Good video. Toward the end of the video, as she was pointing out the circuit barkers to the cages (and the barkers cabinet door open) she almost could have turned some of these off - if you watch closely.
Glad that did not happen, but that would have been ironic.

Just contact an Equinix rep and schedule a tour of their nearest facility, they'll gladly show them to pretty much anyone, probably get more out of that than the video.

Nice Video--
Thanks for posting, however their title on the page which reads "See where the Internet lives" is a bit ambiguous and could be deceiving to not-so-technicaly inclined viewers.
