miller60 writes: AOL has begun operations at a new data center that will be completely unmanned, with all monitoring and management being handled remotely. The new "lights out" facility is part of a broader updating of AOL infrastructure that leverages virtualization and modular design to quickly deploy and manage server capacity. “These changes have not been easy,” AOL's Mike Manos writes in a blog post about the new facility. "Its always culturally tough to being open to fundamentally changing business as usual."
