Abstract
A data center inside a shipping container having computing equipment and associated devices located in its interior. The data center includes computing equipment, an internal network, an external network, power supplies, a lighting system, and a controller. The power supplies and the lighting system connect to the controller, which in turn connects to the internal network. The computing equipment connects to the power supplies. A remote computing device connected to the external network communicates with the controller through the internal network. The remote computing device receives information from the controller and instructs the controller to selectively energize and de-energize the power supplies and the lighting system. The controller may have a user interface configured to display data associated with the computing equipment and other devices and systems located within the container.
