Under the sea, Microsoft tests a datacenter that’s quick to deploy, could provide internet connectivity for years
Microsoft is leveraging technology from submarines and working with pioneers in marine energy for the second phase of its moonshot to develop self-sufficient underwater datacenters that can deliver lightning-quick cloud services to coastal cities. An experimental, shipping-container-size prototype is processing workloads on the seafloor near Scotland’s Orkney Islands, Microsoft announced today.
The deployment of the Northern Isles datacenter at the European Marine Energy Centre marks a milestone in Microsoft’s Project Natick, a years-long research effort to investigate manufacturing and operating environmentally sustainable, prepackaged datacenter units that can be ordered to size, rapidly deployed and left to operate lights out on the seafloor for years.
“That is kind of a crazy set of demands to make,” said Peter Lee, corporate vice president of Microsoft AI and Research, who leads the New Experiences and Technologies, or NExT, group. “Natick is trying to get there.”
Lee’s group pursues what Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has called “relevant moonshots” with the potential to transform the core of Microsoft’s business and the computer technology industry. Project Natick is an out-of-the-box idea to accommodate exponential growth in demand for cloud computing infrastructure near population centers.
More than half of the world’s population lives within about 120 miles of the coast. By putting datacenters in bodies of water near coastal cities, data would have a short distance to travel to reach coastal communities, leading to fast and smooth web surfing, video streaming and game playing as well as authentic experiences for AI-driven technologies.
“For true delivery of AI, we are really cloud dependent today,” said Lee. “If we can be within one internet hop of everyone, then it not only benefits our products, but also the products our customers serve.”

1991年，黎明以「天濛光」為筆名，首次創作歌曲〈我的感覺〉，當時他表示希望籌建一所製作公司，從事音樂或電影的幕後製作。黎明認為音樂是無分國界，不應介懷選唱的歌曲是否香港原創音樂，但同時表明支持本地創作，亦會嘗試作曲及填詞。1999年，黎明首次以導演身份（別名L.L.）自導自演拍... -
黎明最早期的音樂作品是在1980年代尾主唱的電視劇歌曲，直到1990年加盟寶麗金唱片公司後開始發行音樂專輯，早期的專輯以雷射唱片、黑膠唱片和卡式錄音帶形式推出，後來以雷射唱片為主，他認為每張專輯都要有新元素帶給聽眾，因此在專輯籌備前參與工作會議並提出意見。2011年，黎明的專輯《...

1991年，香港商業電台在大專會堂為黎明舉辦首個個人演唱會，黎明當時表示不知道自己會唱多少年，要視乎自己的實力及歌迷支持他到多久，同年12月，他在海城大酒樓夜總會首度以收費形式舉行演唱會。1992年，出道兩年的黎明首次在香港最具代表性的流行音樂場地──香港體育館（紅磡體育館）舉行...
