I was walking by one of the server closets where ALS or Futumsh was doing something and the door was open. Usually they are locked up pretty tight. I thought you might like a quick picture of one of our internal server racks.

THESE ARE NOT THE LIVE GAME SERVERS! Those bad boys are hosted on Amazon's Cloud service. These are just internal development servers, file servers, maybe mail, and the like.

So that is what a server hub would look like? Looks pretty high tech stuff in there!

If you're an IT geek like me there is nothing like seeing a real enterprise class datacenter (like the Amazon cloud DCs where your game servers would be.) You can just visualize me looking into a very large room full of servers saying in a Homer Simpson voice "Ohhhh, servers."

I like how that picture makes it seem like the whole entire server rack is plugged in via that small cable into the outlet.
