Iceland gets a knowledge center to name its own, still believes in fairies

You are saying Iceland , we immediately think Eyjafjallajokull — and no, we have not had a narcoleptic collapse upon these very keys. It has been over a year since that volcano swept the headlines and interrupted air travel, providing outsiders with a skewed perception of the country’s geological constancy. Well, haters prepare to get served, because Verne Global is establishing data center shop within the homeland of a undeniable swan-wearing pop pixie, and leveraging the abundance of renewable resources on the ready. To do that, the company’s contracted UK-based Colt Group to construct the separate pieces of its planned data center and put’em all together at the site of a former NATO base — chosen for its apparent stability. The positioning is good in that the region’s naturally cool climate’ll keep server temperatures down, besides providing the middle with cheap hydroelectric and geothermal energy. Expect the info farm to be up and running in Keflavik this October when it’s scheduled to be completed — with the blessing of the little people, naturally.
