With this event and the recent Global Switch / Google Cloud datacenter fire in Paris, we, the French, hope we now have proven our experience in burning datacenters enough. Feel free to reach us if you ever need to burn some datacenters inadvertently, we'll happy to give a hand. We can help by leveraging our unmatched knowledge in advanced technologies and materials like water sourced from clouds.

It would be interesting to know the DC project author/company name.

OVHCloud builds their own DCs.

If physical security (against fire, in this case) in their DCs is clearly not good, then how safe is data?

There's a reason that OVH is usually seen as a trash, low quality provider. :)
