World Server Throwing Championship (WSTC) 2024

For more than 10 years, servers have been thrown in data-center basements, organized by the Dutch Cloud Community. Nobody has been allowed to talk about it—until now. The World Server Throwing Association (WSTA) brings this intense underground sport, which has been criticized as “needlessly brutal to servers”, into the mainstream for the whole Cloud community to enjoy. Now we’ll find out who’s strong, mean, and keeping your datacenter clean!

How It Works

Up to 40 server-throwing athletes will show their raw power in front of a live audience of CloudFest attendees. This intense sport welcomes all genders and ability levels: the only requirement is your desire to throw a server really %&#*ing far.

Each thrower has two attempts, and the furthest result is recorded. CloudFest will provide prizes for the top three finishers. 

Take Your Place in Server-Throwing History

Did you know that ‘discus’ was the classical Greek word for ‘server’? We bet you didn’t! Now you can take part in a ritual show of strength that has actually been around for thousands of years, evolving over the generations to become the intense, kinetic spectacle you’ll see at CloudFest.
