This is different than what Microsoft did a few years back right? Technically they had an 'underwater data center' but I think it was just some reinforced shipping containers that they lowered into the ocean for a year or whatever before deciding it wasn't a workable solution due to various factors like corrosion and inaccessibility.

I would love to see how they did the entire cooling system. My guess is they're probably pumping the sea water through a couple of radiators inside each cabin and have fans blowing across them to keep the air cool inside.
