WSTA presents
World Server Throwing Tour Spanish Qualifier
The World Server Throwing Association (WSTA) brings the datacenter’s most intense underground sport—which has been criticized as “needlessly brutal to servers”—into the mainstream for the whole internet infrastructure community to enjoy.
The World Server Throwing Tour stopped in Barcelona for the Spanish Qualifier (WSTTSQ), so this was our attendees’ chance to demonstrate their technique and raw power. The top three winners were invited to CloudFest 2025 for the World Server Throwing Championship! (It’s like the Olympics but geekier, and you’re allowed to film it on your phone.)
The Server Throwing Arena is where we find out who’s strong, mean, and keeping their datacenter clean!
Wednesday | October 9th,
6:00 pm – 7:00 pm

How It Works
Up to 25 server-throwing athletes show their raw power in front of a live audience of MSP GLOBAL attendees. This intense sport welcomes all genders and ability levels: the only requirement is your desire to throw a server really far.
Each thrower has two attempts, and the furthest result is recorded. MSP GLOBAL provides prizes for the top three finishers, who will also get a free VIP ticket to CloudFest 2025.
Claim 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 PortAventura.
