If the information noise about the slowdown of Twitter yesterday did not allow you to see the important, then let me inform you. Yesterday, March 10, there was a fire in the data center of the OVH provider in Strasbourg, which is among the top 5 largest providers. The SBG2 data exchange center was completely destroyed (completely burned out) and 30% of the SBG1 data center (several boxes burned out). The other 2 buildings, located nearby, are flooded with water.
