Where Is Your Data Stored?

Upon surfing, I found this interesting infographic on where the data of the world is being stored.  If something happened and we had our own Revolution, what data centers should we try to get back online first?

One tidbit from this I found interesting is that of the ten largest data centers in the world, eight of them are in the United States.  On one level, this is surprising, but on another, not so much.  However, that does make me hope that these centers are more secure than Fort Knox and re-affirms for me that I watch way too many shows like 24.

So where in the world is your data stored, Carmen Sandiego?  Check out the infographic below to find out.  Were you as surprised as I was?  Oh, and thanks for the cool graphic, Mozy.
