Data centers in space

CIO

Imagine a world in which data centers were deployed in space. Using a satellite networking system, data would be collected from Earth, then sent to space for processing and storage. The system would use photonics and optical technology, dramatically cutting down on power consumption and boosting data transmission speeds.
