a peek into Microsoft’s global cloud computing operation

You know, nowhere on the internet could I find pictures from inside Google EMEA in Dublin, I once contacted them (by -fax- since they have no email address listed anywhere I could find) to see if I could come and take pictures or have them send me some and I never got a reply. I find it strange that one of Google's biggest offices doesn't have anything to show for it's self like other offices do.
This data centre is really cool looking and I was outside it last week. It seemed eerily quite, there were only a few cars about and no people... |

"Google network architect Koley also had an interesting presentation. He went much deeper into Ethernet technologies and the findings they have seen in fabric technologies, physical complexities and total cost of ownership"

That was a really cool presentation, I'm left wondering what (if any) roll Intel's Light Peak will play in server farms of the future, I'm quite excited for the new connection. |
