Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Server farms require a large amount of land to host the servers and related infrastructure such as cooling systems. Cheap land is necessary to keep the cost of running a server farm affordable. The other options are not necessary or may even be detrimental to the operation of a server farm. DSL Internet connections may not be fast or reliable enough to handle the traffic and data transfer required by a server farm. A cold climate may be beneficial for cooling, but it is not necessary as other types of cooling systems can be used. Premium electric power prices would increase the cost of energy required to operate a server farm. A large maintenance workforce may be helpful, but it is not necessary as many server farms have automated systems for monitoring and maintaining the servers.
