We had a bunch of servers get taken out by this. We were able to failover with backups from the last 12 hours. The incident sounded suspicious from the start, but the wording “could not control the fire in SBG2” sounds very ominous ... Chernobyl-y even. And seeing the compactness of the entire facility (https://baxtel.com/data-center/ovh-strasbourg-campus/photos https://baxtel.com/data-center/ovh-strasbourg-campus/photos), it seems an uncontrolled fire could take out all three buildings in short order. I’m very interested in seeing the damage and postmortem from this one. Also interesting they tout all sorts of sophistication (https://www.ovh.com/world/us/about-us/datacenters.xml https://www.ovh.com/world/us/about-us/datacenters.xml), but no mention of fire suppression
