Apple data center oregon

  Pineville, Oregon, is the location of one of the world's largest data centers Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), for the service iCloud, and according to a local publication, the American company intends to expand its user data storage capacity to cope with the growing number of iDevice/Mac owners. At the moment, the entire construction a Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), lays down on no less than 103.000 square meters and here we include the solar panels designed to provide electricity for the operation of the servers, but it seems that all this space is not enough for the company's plans vis-à-vis iCloud expansion.

  The expansion of the facility in Oregon is based on a law promulgated last week by the governor of the state of Oregon, Kate Brown, exempting the Apple company, among other things, from paying property taxes worth millions of dollars annually, so that Apple will create new places of work with the saved amounts. Unfortunately, for now it is not known exactly what Apple would like to do in Oregon to expand its data storage capacity, but it is not excluded that the number of servers will be doubled in order to cover the growing number of iDevice owners. hate.
