a supporting apparatus detachably installed between the cabinets, wherein the supporting apparatus comprises two connecting members and an operation member, first ends of the connecting members are fixed to the cabinets, and second ends of the connecting members are connected to two opposite ends of the operation member;

wherein the second ends of the connecting members are screwed to the two opposite ends of the operation member.

2. The container data center of claim 1 , wherein a length of the second end of each connecting member in the operation member is adjustable.

3. The container data center of claim 1 , wherein the operation member comprises a tubular operation pole, and two inner-threaded fixing portions formed at two opposite ends of the operation pole, each connecting member comprises a connecting pole, and the second end of the connecting pole is threaded to be screwed to a corresponding one of the fixing portions.

4. The container data center of claim 3 , wherein the fixing portions are two nuts, and mounted to the operation pole by welding, two axes of the nuts are coaxial with each other.

5. The container data center of claim 3 , wherein each connecting member further comprises a connecting plate, the first end of the connecting pole is fixed on the connecting plate.

6. The container data center of claim 5 , wherein the supporting apparatus further comprises two fastening members, a top of each cabinet defines a fastening hole, the connecting plate defines a through hole opposite to the connecting pole, the fastening members extend through the through holes of the connecting plates, to be screwed into the fastening holes.

7. The container data center of claim 6 , wherein the fastening member comprises a bolt and an operation portion extending up from a top of the bolt.

8. The container data center of claim 1 , wherein a first shockproof device is mounted to the bottom of each cabinet, the first shockproof device comprises a bracket fixed to the container and a first shockproof member sandwiched between the cabinet and the bracket, the first shockproof device is made of shockproof material.

9. The container data center of claim 8 , wherein a second shockproof device is mounted to a top of the container, the second shockproof device comprises a second shockproof member, a latching block, and a plurality of nuts, a plurality of screws extends through the second shockproof member, the latching block, and the corresponding nuts, to be screwed into the top of the container, a length of the screws in the top of the container is adjustable to allow the second shockproof member to abut against or move away from the cabinet, the second shockproof device is made of shockproof material.
