Episode 9 - Google Servers

[xGetSmartx]

You know it's fasinating to see that googles servers over (900,000) of those servers have been on since 2000. They first started with only 300,000 now they have 900,000. That's like half the population of Australia I mean in cities not the hole country. In the distance future Google is going to have over 5.5million servers running with over 500.6mb per second of downloading uploading per second thats like 12gig in 5 minutes. That's insane!

He has no idea what hes talking about. Hes completely lost.

[T56Geek]

Whats the Entry Music?



[jackatube]

i wish everybody just shut the f*** up so i can hear what the guy says

[copperkipper1]

How long does the battery last for? , I say we attach an alternator to a bike & hook it up to all the batterys and get a chinese dude to ride the bike.

[DaFakaMatt]

Thats just amazing!

[MrKillswitch88]

Over all the design is worth while but the drives look to be very very loosely installed and vibration looks to be more of a problem unless low rpm drives. They should choose SSD to lower operating and power costs if they are only needed for caching and immediate storage.

[grate1n8]

@MrKillswitch88 SSD are not efficient at all they have a quick failure rate, plus I'm sure the bottom of the chassis have some mechanism to fit into the screw holes of the HDD making it stable

[jbingfa]

I am making a case study for college does anyone know where most youtube and google servers are located ?

[lordgafal]

@jbingfa they have servers all around the world my friend

[jbingfa]

@lordgafal Does the World know he is googled?

[1111Davo1]

google guy was very relaxed, and answered all the questions very well.

[Designandrew]

What the heck is the point of the battery supply?

[datacenterpulse]

@Designandrew Removes the need for large, expensive UPS units upstream. 3-5 minutes of ride through while you switch to Generators.

[matteovinti]

@datacenterpulse but does every server have only one / two battery or even it's own inverter?

[htfkid2000]

@matteovinti they dont need an inverter! a computer uses DC internally >_>

[DatacoreSound]

@datacenterpulse What exactly is 'ride through'?

[chavmusher]

google are takeing over the world

[linagee]

wow, they sure do ask some stupid questions.

[berkut2006]

cold war era xD

[simpsonstewie]

thats really cool! my dad has the same exact position with citibank.

[nartus2005]

Grate Job!!!

[nawkwan]

As Ben explained the motherboard is connected to two separate power sources: the psu and the 12v battery pack. I wonder how the system/custom control circuit works in detecting a power failure in the psu. Does it have to the two transistors that he mentioned @ 5:31

[aandreispike]

lol look at the rams!!!

[jenglish1984]

Yes, it's a server! Do you want a high end server to fail due to RAM overload?

[FunnyV1d30s]

Lol damn big RAMS

[Ahmidsviper]

he looks cool for a super nerd

[mykimochi]

lol this fails... i made a much better server than this before

[simonpettersen]

dick,

[bitsblogger]

12 volt battery backs in each file server! Cool.

[greaky]

best example of keep it simple stupid ...
