A '''data center''' is a mammoth array of [[computer]]s for storing and processing data, causing energy and water shortages while generating noise, air, and light [[pollution]]. A data center typically fills 10-50 acres in a large warehouse-type building or buildings (called a campus if more than one building, in which case it can cover 200 or more acres, and even up to 1000 acres for the largest data centers). Merely one [[Google]] data center has allegedly destroyed 500 football-fields worth of forest. If the space is rented, then the landlord is called the colocation provider.
