The SuperNAP is a 407,000 square foot data center being built by Switch Communications in Las Vegas. Rob Roy, CEO of Switch, recently showed us some of the facility’s features ahead of its Sept. 1 opening, including its three redundant power systems, cooling and heating infrastructure and generators. This video runs about 4 minutes.
