If I understand this correctly, it is a building shell in which one can install computers. I don;t see the notability. There are references, but not everything referenced is appropriate for an article. DGG ( talk ) 05:52, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, this has more background (HP bought a start-up which specializes in this.) We do have modular data center and Google Modular Data Center and so forth. If you want to propose we merge or delete all of those, then go for it. Otherwise this is a keep as it has similar press coverage as the other major industry players in this area.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

delete Who cares what HP do any more, they're just another innovation-averse IT service company these days. We're not here to be their product catalogue. If someone independent pays attention to it, then this might might change. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:28, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- There is plenty of coverage to satisfy WP:GNG, including [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] easily found in the first 3 pages of google hits. Your opinion of HP seems to have put some big tainted glasses on your !vote. Among all the modular data centers that we have articles for, this is probably the only one that isn't built from/in shipping containers. However, most of these articles are pretty stubby, including the grandaddy of them all, so I suppose someone could start a multiple merge discussion on the main article's talk page. (Also the "grandaddy" didn't modularize power and cooling, which some of the later ones, including this one, did.) Someone not using his real name (talk) 11:26, 2 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. Coverage appears borderline from what I found, but a Google search doesn't usually find everything (particularly while the Google News Archive is down), so I would err on the side of keeping. --Michig (talk) 10:55, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
