Wellington. New Zealand as a global datacentre hub. The demise of the Pacific Fibre project, which would have seen a second international cable built between Australia, New Zealand and the US, doesn’t necessarily spell the end of the country hosting overseas data.

New Zealand as a global datacentre hub

New Zealand still has unique advantages as a location for very large global datacentres, according to consultant and entrepreneur John Humphrey, who was one of the founders and former CTO of Pacific Fibre. New Zealand has stable politics and a supportive government. It has a skilled workforce, low crime rates and a temperate climate, he says. There is also relatively low cost power with a high percentage of renewable sources, such as hydro and wind, and there is the possibility of a dedicated geothermal power station.

Anglais australien

L'anglais australien. Il s’agit de la forme de l’anglais parlé en Australie. Contexte linguistique socio-historique[modifier | modifier le code] L’anglais d’Australie a commencé à diverger de l’anglais britannique très peu de temps après la fondation de la colonie pénitentiaire de la Nouvelle-Galles du Sud en 1788. Les bagnards britanniques s’installèrent là, y compris les « Cockneys » de Londres (terme pour le parler de la capitale). En 1827, Peter Cunnigham (en), dans son livre Deux ans en Nouvelle-Galles du Sud (« Two Years in New South Wales »), relate que les natifs européens australiens parlaient avec un accent et un vocabulaire différents, avec une forte influence Cockney.

Parmi les éléments forgés dans la période des différentes ruées vers l’or, on peut noter une américanisation de la langue. Des mots britanniques tels que « mobile » et « mobile phone » sont usités. Phonologie[modifier | modifier le code] Anglais néo-zélandais.
