Google container data center tour
Ever wonder how Google is able to achieve efficiencies in its data centers? Then have a look at this video.
Its style reminded me a little of the documentaries from the 50s and 60s. Just thinking about it, I'm not sure how I'd go about doing a documentary like this myself. Look at the emphasis placed on the efficient utilisation of power and cooling in the design.
As someone who has built a few data centres like that, Google is doing a pretty shithouse job. That wasn't an impressive video.
