Hi All - New to the community and looking forward to connecting and learning! If you or any new hires on your team (or your mom!) are new to interconnection, ecosystems and data centers, this short “Where is the Physical Internet?” video from investment company Cowen is an excellent intro from the consumer perspective. It's a 9-minute walk-through of Equinix’s NY5 facility that includes insight into the physical infrastructure responsible for securing, cooling/powering, and connecting a modern data center. During the tour, you’ll also learn about the ecosystems at the NY5 data center that attract companies to interconnect there.
