Google opens Web Window on their Data Centers
http://www.google.com/about/datacenters/gallery/#/ "Where the Internet lives - Take a look inside Google's high-tech data centers" showed up as an article in the local _Philadelphia_Inquirer_ newspaper this morning. http://www.philly.com/philly/business/174685071.html Because of prior Data Center and Google discussions on NANOG, am hoping this is interesting to others.

I saw that yesterday. I also enjoyed looking at the inside of their datacenter on Google Street view. https://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ll=35.898532,-81.545817&spn=0.004806,0.010568&sll=35.900197,-81.547024&layer=c&cid=7373938251588581469&panoid=2A5KnxdctVfIXT0qFF5Z6Q&cbp=13,356.72,,0,2.73&gl=US&t=m&cbll=35.898546,-81.547919&z=17 Derek On Oct 18, 2012, at 10:28 AM, "Tony Patti" <tony@swalter.com> wrote:

http://www.google.com/about/datacenters/gallery/#/tech/12 This picture has obviously been photoshopped. If you look closely, this is a mirrored picture: left and right sides are strictly the same.
It looks right the right-hand side is real and the left is just a mirror on most of the pictures. You can see from the LED's, empty slots in the racks, hanging cables and labels. Here is a collect of photos you from the Reddit thread on it: http://imgur.com/a/UBxVc Also they did not show any of their custom networking equipment. http://www.networking-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=29803 The whole event was all just Smoke and Mirrors..... www.youtube.co.jp/watch?v=kU4RHfjeE8w On 19 October 2012 14:09, Jérôme Fleury <jerome@fleury.net> wrote:

One of those photos looks like it came directly from the Hive in Resident Evil. Now we know... Tim
