Meet the $300K Robot Dogs Guarding Massive Data Centers
Data centers are getting bigger… and so is the cost of securing them. To keep up with the demand for constant security across their massive facilities, some of the largest data center operators in the US are turning to robot dogs. According to Business Insider, these are not experimental machines.

That’s why security became a much more demanding priority. To cover that need, some companies started betting on an untraditional solution. Instead of adding more hu…
Years ago, data centers were used as data storage and processing systems that used to come from large companies. They were also used to offer cloud services with cloud computing and web hosting. However, all this has changed with the arrival of artificial intelligence and most data centers are migrating to this. Here they are used for training and inference of new AI models or to offer artificial intelligence services. These data centers have ve…
$300,000 dog robots are now securing some of the largest data centers that feed our AIs. This rekindles the debate about the relevance of replacing humans with machinesA conventional security officer costs $150,000 a year and is entitled to leave. A dog robot costs between $165,000 and $300,000 on purchase and operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without sick leave, no benefits and no overtime. All calculations made, these machines...
