On the other hand, known hazards are often ignored because administrators underestimate or don't understand their scope, severity and risk.

With Halloween just around the corner, this Infographic (and subject matter) is quite appropriate.  The source for these stats is the CloudPhysics global data set, which has more than 50 trillion points of machine metadata from data centers of all shapes and sizes around the world. 

After enjoying the Infographic, be sure to check out this CloudPhysics blog post for more tricks and treats.
