Many data centers provide colo/hardware renting facilities, such as Equinix, Coresite, Digital Realty etc. (Even AWS got started off those, though they mostly build their own data centers now.)



When small companies get big, there must sometimes be legacy compute jobs still left on the original infrastructure right? Ie. Jeff's original php script to trigger some automation that never got adopted by any team.

Do all the big tech companies still have a box somewhere full of legacy stuff that 'probably isn't important, but not worth turning off just incase it is'?
