Capital One Brings Sustainability to Its Cloud Migration

When Capital One closed its last three data centers in 2020, the company commissioned Gabriel Dishaw, an upcycler and sculptor, to reuse some of the decommissioned parts and pieces to create a work of art.

Gabriel Dishaw created Pegasus from parts and pieces of the data centers. Capital One will display the sculpture on its Knolls campus in Richmond, VA.
