I think the word GP is objecting to isn't "your own" but rather "build".
For people who have taken empty lots and constructed new data centers (ie, the whole building) on them from scratch, the phrase "building a datacenter" involves a nonzero amount of concrete.
OP seems to have built out a data hall - which is still a cool thing in its own right! - but for someone like me who's interested in "baking an apple pie from scratch", the mismatch between the title and the content was slightly disappointing.
It doesn't matter which word. Which I should confess makes my remark above appear, in retrospect, to be something of a trap; because when parsing ambiguity, it's a matter of simple courtesy and wisdom to choose the interpretation that best illustrates the point rather than complaining about the ones that don't.
I say this not merely to be a pompous smartass but also because it illustrates and echoes the very same problem the top-level comment embodies, viz. that some folks struggle with vernacular, nonliteral, imprecise, and nonlinear language constructs. Yet grasping this thistle to glark one's grok remains parcel-and-part of comprehension and complaining about it won't remeaningify the barb'd disapprehensible.
Your disappointment, nevertheless, seems reasonable, because the outcome was, after all, a bait-and-route.
