Data Center gives new meaning to 'fast'
Did you notice? Hardware that supports key campus services, including email routing and my.ucdavis.edu, sped up last year by an order of magnitude.
Unless you track time in milliseconds, you probably didn't detect the change. But the improvement represents a useful step forward in data-storage processing for campus web-based services, especially the busy ones.
