Techniques are disclosed for validating a cloud region built at a prefab factory. A computing device of the cloud region can receive a network configuration from a manager service. The network configuration can correspond to a network topology of physical resources in the cloud region and can include a first identifier associated with a computing device, a second identifier associated with a neighboring computing device, and information associating the computing device with the neighboring computing device. The computing device can be configured for transmitting to a second data center and can boot into a test mode at the second data center and receive a new identifier from a server device. The computing device can verify the new identifier and send a validation request to the neighboring computing device. The computing device can validate a network connection to the neighboring computing device based on a response to the validation request.

A portable data center is configured to be supported by any suitable self-propelled motor vehicle, and transported to a client location, such that a large volume of data can be transmitted to, and stored on, computing devices of the portable data center via a hard wire communication link. The portable data center can then be transported to a data center building so as to store the data received at the client location on one or more computing devices housed in the data center building.
