Google Data Center from the inside

All of us may wonder about the size of Google's database and data centers, and how they look from the inside, and wonder about the people who manage these huge database centers. Today we will take you on a quick tour inside Google's data centers and to places that no one has ever seen. Google's data center from the outside Today, Google brings us inside its data centers through this wonderful service so that we can see and contemplate how work is done inside this integrated structure, which is the core of the Internet at the present time. Follow with us the following video, which shows us a quick overview of the service and takes us on a wonderful journey inside the Google data center in the United States of America. You can enter from  

The front door, go to the upper floor, then to the table tennis hall and from there to the data center floor.

You can also take a walk  

Outside the facility to see the cooling infrastructure designed to save energy. The ingenuity of engineers at Google over the past 14 years has been the main reason for making Google the number one global company in its field. We can say that one of the crucial things to its success is its ability to extend a very huge network of optical fibers around the world and distribute them in the oceans in a frightening way.

This very wide extension of the Google network was the reason for its ability to accommodate more than 3 billion searches per day and more, and to provide mail service to more than 459 million users around the world. Supporting billions of monthly video views around the world, and many of the services provided by Google, make it the most difficult number for competing companies. Google's data centers enjoy very high confidentiality, as there are very few employees who have access to them. This was one of the reasons that led to Google's protection against hacking. To this day, Google's data centers are still secret and access to them is prohibited, in order to also preserve the confidentiality of your personal information.

Contents of the topic Toggle Holzl and his team: Data centers consume up to 1.5 percent of the world’s electricity: Holzl and his team: Server rooms “data centers” must remain very cold and huge machines are used to get rid of huge amounts of heat, and data centers were forced to use giant room air conditioners to maintain this coolness, so it was necessary to use naturally cold places, such as the North Pole, to create future data centers. Which requires huge amounts of energy; Data centers consume up to 1.5 percent of all electricity in the world.

Data centers consume up to 1.5 percent of the world's electricity: Cold lanes are a tightly enclosed space where heat flows from the back of the servers. The temperature can reach about 120 degrees, and this heat can be absorbed by coils filled with water, then pumped out of the building and cooled before circulating inside. In addition to a long list of achievements, Google has broken the traditional ideas we mentioned previously for cooling and invented its own method for that, with a cost that reached $600 million. Google's large data centers typically employ giant towers for hot water cooling operations where hot water trickles down through the equivalent of vast radiators. At a Belgium facility, Google uses industrial water recycling in a duct for cooling; In Finland, seawater is used and every data center uses the safest way to maintain heat.

As for alternative energy, the design of the data centers allows Google to place additional units of UPS devices next to each server, and also to place huge energy storage units over long distances capable of operating the data centers for very long periods. This is what made the rate of service interruptions in Google due to power outages reach less than 0.01 percent. All these innovations helped Google achieve unprecedented energy savings. Measuring the level of efficiency of a data center is called Power Usage Effectiveness, or PUE.

For years, Google did not share the secrets of its centers and how they worked. “Our main advantage was really our massive computer network,” says Jim Reese, who helped set up the company's servers. “We realized that it might not be in Google's interest to reveal its positions to its competitors at that time and we did our best to leave our competitors without information.”

Google was the first environmental and energy conservationist by being a model of green practices. In 2007, Google officially committed to what is called carbon neutrality, meaning that every molecule of carbon produced by the activities of its refrigeration units to power its diesel generators had to be eliminated and converted to natural energy generation. Now I leave you with some pictures of the data centers and cooling devices that we talked about:
