Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for building a region at a prefab factory. A manager service can receive a build request. The manager service can generate, based on the build request, a physical build request for building physical resources within the prefab factory. The manager service can receive an indication that the physical resources corresponding to the physical build request have been built. In response, the manager service can implement a virtual bootstrap environment at a second data center communicatively connected to the prefab factory. The manager service can deploy software resources to the physical resources using the virtual bootstrap environment. The manager service can configure the physical resources for transmitting to a destination site by at least generating an inventory of the physical resources and generating a network configuration corresponding to a network topology of the physical resources in the prefab factory.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for validating a cloud region built at a prefab factory. A computing device of a cloud region can boot into a test mode. The computing device can receive an identifier from a server device and verify the identifier using a network configuration. The network configuration can include identifier information for the computing device and additional computing devices of the prefabricated region data center. The computing device can validate a network connection to a neighboring computing device of the prefabricated region data center.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for validating a cloud region built at a prefab factory. A computing device of the cloud region can receive a network configuration from a manager service. The network configuration can correspond to a network topology of physical resources in the cloud region and can include a first identifier associated with a computing device, a second identifier associated with a neighboring computing device, and information associating the computing device with the neighboring computing device. The computing device can be configured for transmitting to a second data center and can boot into a test mode at the second data center and receive a new identifier from a server device. The computing device can verify the new identifier and send a validation request to the neighboring computing device. The computing device can validate a network connection to the neighboring computing device based on a response to the validation request.

Abstract: A portable data center is configured to be supported by any suitable self-propelled motor vehicle, and transported to a client location, such that a large volume of data can be transmitted to, and stored on, computing devices of the portable data center via a hard wire communication link. The portable data center can then be transported to a data center building so as to store the data received at the client location on one or more computing devices housed in the data center building.
