I love the idea but I wouldn’t want my company data in some guys shed.
I’d expect dual power, dual networking and extremely strong physical security, doesn’t sound cost effective from the data centre point of view.
£375 a month for energy on a 2 bed seems steep? Ours is 4 bed and ~£240 in the winter and we have the fire and heating on loads, I refuse to work all week and be cold in my own home, that’s including charging a car overnight too.
Its subsidised those persons bills yes, but its not actually green because its still costing a fortune in energy.
> The project is still in the pilot phase, but in the future, clients will pay Thermify to process their data using the HeatHubs.
Lol. Two-tier data processing.
I wonder how this works in the summer where you want to get rid of excess heat.
Incredible moustache on Daniel Greenwood from Eastlight in that article.
There are space heaters you can buy now that are also bitcoin miners.
I work in the data centre sector and this isn’t new, just a much smaller and localised scale.
We build edge DCs and all of our sites are designed to be heat networked, so we can supply excess heat to neighbouring businesses and residences as a form of district heating.
I’m not sure how viable this proposal is for most people, but it is an interesting idea.
Just saw this an another thread.
This is such a daft idea.
Yep, how the hell do they get SOC2 or ISO27k certification with a shed in some random fellas back garden?
No company would support this when forking out for cloud services.
Right to audit incoming….
That doesn’t make any sense, the electricity needed to power a mini data centre would cost £100’s extra per month. Even if you’re passing that cost onto the data user it doesn’t make it green unless you have wind turbines or solar I guess.
