# What it collects

Facility records (kind: facility) via parser(s) telehouse_facility_v1 in apps/worker/src/connectors/operators2/emea.ts.

Fields published by the pages and captured: name, city, countryIso2 (URL), facilityType, certifications, description; no MW/address published.

Every field carries an extraction method in methods (e.g. json-ld:PostalAddress, regex:it_mw_v1, attr:data-value+MW, lookup:city-country) for provenance. Coordinates are only taken from JSON-LD / embedded JSON / map links published by the operator — never geocoded. Status defaults to operational unless the page uses pipeline wording (under construction / coming soon / planned).

# Discovery

Sitemaps: https://www.telehouse.net/page-sitemap.xml, https://www.telehouse.net/post-sitemap.xml
Include: /data-centre-services/[a-z]+/[a-z-]+/[a-z0-9-]+/$, /news/, /press-releases?/
Exclude: \?, #
Classify: /data-centre-services/[a-z]+/[a-z-]+/[a-z0-9-]+/$ → facility_pages (facility_page); /(news|press-releases?)/. → newsroom (press_release)

Newsroom URLs (when configured) rely on the GenericConnector news fallback (press_release → news_event when data-center relevant).

# Schedule & fetch

Schedule: facility_pages weekly, newsroom daily, sitemap weekly
Fetch: L1→L2, 15 rpm, concurrency 2, robots.txt respected, max 20 premium credits/run. All pages are served at L1 (plain HTTP); maxLevel is capped at 2 so false-positive “blocked” heuristics (HubSpot / cookie-consent strings) never spend Scrapfly credits.

# Quirks

Facility pages /data-centre-services//// publish specifications (power, cooling, carriers) but no MW/address; name, city and country come from the page/URL.

# Verification (live, 2026-09-11)

try-connector --limit N: discovered 155 URLs (facility_pages=24, newsroom=131); sampled pages → 4 entities, 4 valid, 0 rejected, 0 premium credits.
