Communication at full speed
Data centres work at full speed to keep the digital world connected.
Billions of bytes of information are exchanged over the Internet
every day in modern server farms. Around the clock. Google is at the
forefront of this. This search engine provider’s website is the most
visited in the world. According to a statement from the company,
three billion search queries were processed per day in data centres
in 2012.
The cover picture is of the data centre in Council Bluffs, in the
American state of Iowa. On an area measuring 10,000 square metres
there are rows and rows of servers all connected to one another.
All of the company’s data centres can also communicate globally
with one another.
