The expert suggested placing some data centers in Siberia and beyond the Urals.
We are talking about data centers that are not designed for "lightning fast response".
It is necessary to develop infrastructure not only in the Central Federal District, but also in other regions of Russia, noted Andrey Bezrokov, chairman of the board of the autonomous non-profit organization Center for Unmanned Systems and Technologies, on the radio station "Moscow Speaks".
Data centers for solving certain problems, for example, long-term data storage, archive storage, or some data centers for artificial intelligence, which only perform on-board calculations, in which the delay between the data center and the data requester can reach certain values, that is, there is no need for a lightning-fast response. Such data centers, of course, can be moved to Siberia and beyond the Ural Mountains. And that would be a pretty normal decision. Now, by the way, in Russia most of the data centers are located where their biggest users are. That is, this is the Central Federal District, St. Petersburg. And beyond the Urals and Siberia there are almost no data centers. Of course, the infrastructure there needs to be developed.
