An Insider's Look: Google's Data Centers (Cloud Next '19)

In this session, we'll talk about what makes our data center performance best in class. Learn about our expansion, our end-to-end, highly secure, and reliable environment, and how Google became the world leader in data centers. We'll also show how our efforts in sustainability can help you become a more environmentally responsible business.

Surprised this has so few views. I'm fascinated by Data-center tech.

[@proctor1nwfsc]

As an engineer that builds these networks, it still amazes and fascinates me on a daily basis. The speeds of innovation have blown my mind.

Hi Sir, I am from India, I am Data Center Operator and what a lovely knowledge got me from this video. Thank you so much

[@Stanleyt1107]

Really like the idea of using machine learning to train and learn the sheer amount of data that they are gathering everyday at the data centers, to help optimize the reduction rate in cooling energy consumption in _real time_ !

Good to see the topic of Sustainability nudging higher in the OCP Foundation membership now that Sustainability is the fifth tenent starting in 2023

[@kristopherleslie8343]

Excellent presentation

[@rjhintz]

There's a striking contrast between this talk and a similar talk by James Hamilton about AWS infra in that the Hamilton talk describes in much more detail each of the layers of the "stack," from rack to region, including bandwidth and network topology. I assume Google thinks it's proprietary. Too bad. Also, it would have been interesting to hear how designs changed over the years, including the decision to add OCP. In terms of environmental friendliness, I'm wondering if there's anything special about the use of generators since often generator number and use can be strictly regulated by air quality requirements. Last, it's annoying that the camera focused so much on the speaker when it would have been helpful to have longer visibility of the slides/photos.

make the difference between IT infrastructure and facilities infrastructure

[@cricketer1987]

Always find it interesting when there are videos about data centers - especially Google's.

[@randycolwell5898]

Thank, s for the view this show, s Greatness. Thanks very much for your time.

[@ChrisJohnson-dy8fm]

Great overview of how to do a data center the right way!!

[@cricketer1987]

I hope Google do another video on their data centres soon.

[@Hyuts]

This was amazing!

[@samk4186]

Very good presentation. Nice perspective on data center 101

[@user-universe459]

Thanks your presentation 🙏

[@nimaghadi494]

Great presentation!

[@mudmaster9965]

please have more about data center. Thank you!

[@AshutoshKumar-ue3dr]

Why these datacenters only have a single ground floor?

[@AshutoshKumar-ue3dr]

@@erincarson8998 Is real-estate so cheap as compared to managing a second floor?

[@stevieboi9907]

Cloud is NOW & the future

[@stevieboi9907]

No one thinks of where their data is actually stored physically! I want to work for you

[@wiziek]

@@stevieboi9907 You want to sweep their floors or what?

[@maximilian19931]

hardware is one thing but if the software needs large quantities of resource and uses only a fraction of it and wastes the rest, more datacenters need to be build.

[@blancasoto2503]

Hello! From Telemundo!

[@mulletman1705]

So Google is only 7x24x365, this is a leap year man ! Guess ye going down for one whole day this year coz we got 366 days this year

AI Learning means more energy waste.

Carbon neutral is so misleading.
