How many Google servers are there actually? Those servers are ever accessible!! Wont there be a problem with any Google server ever????? can anyone tell me how is this possible?
is there a reason why you cant find all the locations and a total number of datacenters since they are publicly traded
My theory is that these dc's are always crashing during upgrades/updates, or power outages especially during the summer one of reasons we are all seeing dances and all kind of weird things.
Has anyone ever wondered what Google does with its servers once they become outdated? You just can't throw up 450,000 servers.
They probably havent done that yet, besides they have nearly half a million servers so even if they arent the newest of the new then they're still doing pretty well I'd say! I can't imagine half a million servers! Impossible!
why? a typical medium size data center houses 10,000 machines, google owns several and colocate in alot more hell i own and run well over dozen servers
Well actually, a server does reach the stage in its life cycle where it becomes too costly to run in terms of electricity than it is worth. It wouldn't surprise me if Google had a high server turnover rate, just to get new parts that are more power efficient. How many servers did they have in 2002? Quite a bit probably. And they probably are too inefficient to bother turning on, not to mention they would probably be pretty beat. What would Google do with these?
They change or repair about 50 000 a day. They sure must have a big work force. Funny i dont' know any of there workers. Anyone know any.
Must be in thousands or may be reaching million mark if not then it will reach soon 700 ips are only listed at digpagerank
