Project Mercury - Phoenix, AZ

Jeremy Gilbertson, Dan Fanning, Don Kinser, and Beth Bandi attended the grand opening for eBay's Project Mercury Data Center in Phoenix, AZ. The event was attended by select data center owners, operators and members of the Data Center Pulse community. The crowd was extremely excited to take a detailed look into Project Mercury and the final product. Dean Nelson, Mike Lewis, and the entire eBay team presented the project from inception to operation, and they led an extremely insightful closed door discussion with their peers in the industry. The second day of the Grand Opening featured displays by the project teams and an in-depth presentation. The design team, led by EDI, supported the break-out sessions with the Data Center Pulse attendees. EDI's Data Center Practice is excited to continue our work with eBay on new projects associated with Project Mercury, as well as Project Quicksilver.
