Thats the smell test right there. Any hosting company worth its salt would have offsite backups.( and their clients would probably do their own backups as a backup also) Also, these type of places invest A LOT of money into climate control and disaster mitigation.(ie fire suppression)
I worked literally inside a data center earlier in my career. It had halide? Fire suppression. Can't remember if thats the name. In the event of a fire alarm you had 15 seconds to get out the door before they started pumping this inert gas into the building. Suffocating to humans. And fire.
Halon. I'm doing mep design on data centers now. I don't know what the standards are in France but in the US even a basic (sub Tier-1) data center has fire suppression and network rooms tend to have redundant suppression and be built wife fire walls all around.
Still halon ?
Pretty much. I think they're calling it FM-200 now. It displaces oxygen like Halon does. I'm M&P, not F.
Thats it!
