Google’s Platform
“[Google's] ability to build, organize, and
operate a huge network of servers and fiber-
optic cables with an efficiency and speed that
rocks physics on its heels.
This is what makes Google Google: its physical
network, its thousands of fiber miles, and those
many thousands of servers that, in aggregate,
add up to the mother of all clouds.”
