A First Look at Apple’s Massive Data Center - ReadWriteCloud

appleLogoSquareJan2010.jpgA first peek at Apple’s new data center in Maiden, North Carolina, shows a massive complex that demonstrates the huge commitment Apple may be making to cloud computing.

According to Data Center Knowledge, the $1 billion data center is 500,000 square feet in size, nearly five times the size of Apple’s 100,000 square foot facility in Newark, New Jersey.

The data center is considered a major part of Apple’s cloud computing roll out.

It is speculation at this point what Apple is planning to do with the data center and how it will leverage cloud computing.

Is Cloud ITunes finally on the way!?! PRETTY PLEASE STEVE!
